Is there a problem actually running it if you compile by hand or use Emacs 20-compiled files (e.g. Debian's)? It did work for me to the extent I used it.

Remove the bogus setting of it in the compilation driver. Actually, remove any such settings. [Using such drivers is normally not a good idea. I don't do it to build the development W3 (which means the one in CVS may not work). I had to do quite a lot of work to ensure that Gnus 5.9 built properly by compiling independent files so that Emacs could bootstrap and not have maintenance surprises from changing Gnus. Real errors in W3 and Gnus came to light from noting all the compiler warnings and DTRT, rather than trying to suppress them. Compiler changes and appropriate coding conventions reduce the noise from warnings in such packages; I don't remember which changes are in the mythical Emacs 21 compiler.]
