Thank you for your report.

However, could you please show us which portion of what makefile has a
"cd $srcdir" in it?  I cannot find it anywhere with today's CVS.
Perhaps you've caught a makefile.w32-in during a short period where a
wrong change was installed there a few days ago, before it was
reverted; in that case, please resync and try again.
