No, I asked you to do what you did below.

No, dumping as bootstrap-emacs.pdmp is normal.  What is abnormal is
that this is not immediately followed by another loadup.

I think I understand why it doesn't complete the build for you: it's
because you say "make -k emacs" instead of just "make -k".  Can't you
omit the "emacs" part?  If not, why not?
