You have a stale installation, or partial installation in more than
one place.  Remove them all from the installation directories, then
make install from the new tarballs.

There's a reason we release 10 tarballs at at a time:  They have
dependencies between them.  You really want all the new ones that are
relevant to your configuration.  They also have to be built in a
reasonable order.  Most people need at least gnuradio-core, usrp,
gr-usrp, gnuradio-examples, gr-wxgui and one of of the gr-audio-*
blocks.

Build them in this order.  Leave out those you're not using:

>>> /home/eb/gr-build/gnuradio-core
>>> /home/eb/gr-build/usrp
>>> /home/eb/gr-build/gr-audio-alsa
>>> /home/eb/gr-build/gr-audio-jack
>>> /home/eb/gr-build/gr-audio-oss
>>> /home/eb/gr-build/gr-audio-portaudio
>>> /home/eb/gr-build/gr-usrp
>>> /home/eb/gr-build/gr-wxgui
>>> /home/eb/gr-build/gnuradio-examples
>>> /home/eb/gr-build/gr-howto-write-a-block
