Yes, it includes cedet, cedet/semantic, cedet/semantic/wisent,
cedet/semantic/symref, cedet/semantic/decorate, cedet/semantic/bovine,
and cedet/semantic/analyze

Yes, there is.  It says this:

    (normal-top-level-add-to-load-path '("semantic" ))

There's also subdirs.el in cedet/semantic.

What change you made, and in what Makefile.in?

All I can say is that I ran `confugure' and `make -j6 bootstrap'.  And
I have the Bash history to prove that.

[Time passes...]  Ah, I think I see the problem: this subdirs.el is
very old, from 2 weeks ago.  I think it was created when you added the
directories in the CEDET branch, at which time they appeared (as
empty) on HEAD as well, and then make-subdirs created the file.  If I
delete that file, the problem is gone.

So maybe "make bootstrap" should delete all subdirs.el, as cleanup.
