[Rd] zip error, missing file

[Duncan Murdoch]

4.  Noticed this error go by in the r-devel build in Windows 95:

F:/R/TOOLS/BIN/MAKE.EXE -C ./help RHOME=F:/R/R-devel
PKGDIR=F:/R/R-devel/src/lib
rary RLIB=F:/R/R-devel/library ziponlyhelp-base
MAKE.EXE[2]: Entering directory `F:/R/R-devel/src/gnuwin32/help'
zip -jqmX help/Rhelp help/* -x help/AnIndex 2> nul
MAKE.EXE[3]: [zipup] Error 12 (ignored)

My guess is that it's a problem with "2> nul".  That syntax isn't
supported by COMMAND.COM.  It didn't appear to cause any problems
though...

5.  But this one has me stopped again:

 gcc  --shared -s  -o ctest.dll ctest.def ctest.a ctest_res.o   -lg2c
EXTRADOCS=
 F:/R/R-devel/bin/R.dll
 gcc: EXTRADOCS=: No such file or directory
 MAKE.EXE[3]: *** [ctest.dll] Error 1
 MAKE.EXE[3]: Leaving directory `F:/R/R-devel/src/library/ctest/src'
 F:\R\TOOLS\BIN\MAKE.EXE[2]: *** [src/ctest.dll] Error 2
 F:\R\TOOLS\BIN\MAKE.EXE[2]: Leaving directory
`F:/R/R-devel/src/library/ctest'

It looks to me as though gcc thinks "EXTRADOCS=" is a filename, but I
don't know  why.  The only place I can spot this is in
src/gnuwin32/Makefile line 184, but it might be coming from somewhere
else, and I don't know what is causing the error.
