Re: cannot build on w32

[Sam Steingold]

Aha!
the problem is that now emacs uses some gnulib modules and their
building and use are not integrated into the emacs w32 build system
(configure.bat &c). e.gl., there is no makefile.w32-in in src/lib.

fwiw, I use gnulib modules in clisp on both windows and unix and I use
the same autoconf-created configure files on unix and windows alike
identically.
(except that I to "./configure CC='gcc -mno-cygwin'" on win32).
this saves me an extra effort of maintaining a separate build system on windows.
