That's the drawback of patches.  They only apply smoothly against
pristine source.

`make beta' will take care of that for you.


The most useful targets beyond the usual `make' are:

`make all-elc' -- Rebuild XEmacs and rebytecompile all out of date .elcs.

`make autoloads' -- To rebuild loaddefs.el (currently somewhat dangerous)
Anyone up to writing a perl script so this step can be done without an
xemacs executable?

`make beta' -- equivalent to `make clean; make all-elc'

`make clean' -- to start over from scratch.

Excellent.
