Re: NT Emacs make problem..

[Richard Stallman]

      i suggest we write
    that script, include "chmod +w $cannot_be_ro_file_list", and publish the
    way to build emacs from cvs as:

     cvs checkout ...
     cd emacs
     sh -x prep-bootstrap       # ("-x" for entertainment purposes :-)
     make bootstrap

Why not put those preparations into the `bootstrap' target in Makefile?
That target is meant for use on a CVS checkout, and these chmods
do no harm there.  Would you like to write the appropriate command
and add it to Makefile.in?
