I got Auctex+EmacsW32 working well on my laptop, but am now having
troubles getting it installed on my desktop.  There are strange errors
when I run configure that are similar to this one:
checking where lisp files go... cat: ./conftest-3828: No such file or directory

Otherwise, configure and make say they complete correctly, but make
install just gives this:

$ make install
./mkinstalldirs
rm -f /auctex/tex-site.el # Remove old (CVS-version) mistakes
test ! -f /tex-site.el || { \
          if grep -q "tex-site.*Don't edit." /tex-site.el; then \
           echo "Overwriting old tex-site.el" ; \
          else \
           echo "Renaming old tex-site.el to tex-site.el.save" ; \
           mv /tex-site.el /tex-site.el.save ; \
          fi; \
       }
if test Xno = Xno; \
       then /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 tex-site.el  ; \
       else rm -f /tex-site.el ; \
       fi
/usr/bin/install: missing destination file operand after `tex-site.el'
Try `/usr/bin/install --help' for more information.
make: *** [install-el] Error 1


How do I fix this?

Thanks,

Ryan
