-*** `configure' fails with ``"junk.c", line 660: invalid input token: 8.elc''

-The final stage of the Emacs configure process uses the C preprocessor
-to generate the Makefiles.  Errors of this form can occur if the C
-preprocessor inserts extra whitespace into its output.  The solution
-is to find the switches that stop your preprocessor from inserting extra
-whitespace, add them to CPPFLAGS, and re-run configure.  For example,
-this error can occur on Solaris 10 when using the Sun Studio compiler
-``Sun C 5.8'' with its preprocessor CPP="/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc -E".
-The relevant switch in this case is "-Xs" (``compile assuming
-(pre-ANSI) K & R C style code'').

-*** Building Emacs with GCC 2.9x fails in the `src' directory.
-
-This may happen if you use a development version of GNU `cpp' from one
-of the GCC snapshots between Oct 2000 and Feb 2001, or from a released
-version of GCC newer than 2.95.2 which was prepared around those
-dates; similar problems were reported with some snapshots of GCC 3.1
-around Sep 30 2001.  The preprocessor in those versions is
-incompatible with a traditional Unix cpp (e.g., it expands ".." into
-". .", which breaks relative file names that reference the parent
-directory; or inserts TAB characters before lines that set Make
-variables).
-
-The solution is to make sure the preprocessor is run with the
-`-traditional' option.  The `configure' script does that automatically
-when it detects the known problems in your cpp, but you might hit some
-unknown ones.  To force the `configure' script to use `-traditional',
-run the script like this:
-
-  CPP='gcc -E -traditional' ./configure ...
-
-(replace the ellipsis "..." with any additional arguments you pass to
-the script).

-Note that this problem does not pertain to the MS-Windows port of
-Emacs, since it doesn't use the preprocessor to generate Makefiles.
