A possible bug during build.

[George R Goffe]

Howdy,

I have a script that I use to build bash and other open source software. When I 
unzip/tar the bash distribution file and run the script in the directory that 
pops out, bash builds correctly (no make install yet). When I run the script 
with NO changes, the build fails. Below is the tail end of the second log that 
shows the error. If you need both logs I can send them, no problem. It's like 
make distclean or make clean removes too many files, without either, the build 
succeeds both times. I'm enclosing the script so you'll see my options.

Regards,

George...
