FYI,

Actually I have not EMACSDATA nor in my environment variables, nor in
the registrty. If I open an MSDOS console and I type

echo %EMACSDATA%

The answer is just %EMACSDATA%.

But the thing is that I made the build from inside Emacs, and there
EMACSDATA is set to the current Emacs etc directory (even though I do
not set EMACSDATA in my init file)...

I will try again with typing SET EMACSDATA= before building.

I don't think that it is strange to build emacs from inside emacs, as
long as you just build, not install. This is what I did.

VBR,
Vincent.

PS: Maybe there should be some robustness against this situation in the
makefile, something testing INSIDE_EMACS along with EMACSDATA.
