What tree?  Please explain.

If this is about missing the "runtime" directory: That's because on
MS-Windows you can run Vim as-is, while on Unix you install it.  Perhaps
what we miss is "make install" for MS-Windows.  Although I would
recommend using Unix (any kind) for development above MS-Windows (e.g,
why do we have one Makefile for all kinds of Unix and many Makefiles for
MS-Windows).  That's how Vim was setup.
