RE: visible system caret no longer working in ms windows

[John covici]

I think this is right because what I did to resolve the thing was to
do a mmake realclean, configure, and nmake bootstrap.  It stopped
when it was trying to to its first compiles with strange file not
found errors and so I compiled all the .el files by hand using only
one per command and then I did a regular nmake and that did it.  So
if I might suggest a solution to the problem that builds under nt
just compile one .el file per invocation of emacs and I think that
would do it.
