The modified files will be compiled if you chdir to the `lisp' subdirectory and type "make bzr-update". It doesn't happen automatically for historical reasons. Volunteers are welcome to add recipes for this to nt/makefile.w32-in, but please do it in a way that is friendly to end-users building and installing a release tarball, which don't necessarily have all the tools required for compiling Lisp. Until that happens, your routine command sets after resyncing with the development trunk should be cd nt configure ... (if any of the makefile.w32-in files changed) make cd ../lisp make bzr-update cd ../nt make install
