Rob and Ulrich, I need your help with this xemacs compilation problem.
Can you double check that the following fix makes sense?  I don't quite
understand the configure files and I am only guessing.  -- Uday

Bug description:
The 8.1 devo version fails to compile in XEmacs.  configure produces the output 
(the relevant section)

checking otherdirs... Reading directory /home/staff/udr/xemacs/vm/8.1/lisp/...
Reading directory /home/staff/udr/xemacs/vm/8.1/lisp/...done

xemacs exiting
.Cannot open load file: conftest.el

The error message "Cannot open load file: conftest.el" ends up being the value 
of OTHERDIRS in lisp/Makefile, breaking the compilation process.

This problem is not present in 8.0.x.
