Thanks for the report and the testing. I will have a look at this tonight.
Yesterday I added options --enable-chm and --enable-xmaxima-exe for the
windows stuff.
These are (supposed to be) disabled by default on all platforms, to
avoid the issues
you have reported. Must be a mistake somewhere.
I didn't think to test "make distclean". I have checked in a fix for
that. Using
automake in interfaces/xmaxima/win32 would be a better solution. It
should be possible now.
