This was a weird problem, and I think there's still a problem somehow.
I did a git bisect between the version the day before, and the broken
version. Each time, I did a "git clean -f -x" which wipes everything
but the commit, and:
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-ns --without-x --without-dbus \
--with-jpeg=no --with-gif=no --with-tiff=no --prefix=/tmp/emacs
to configure, followed by "make clean bootstrap install" to build.
Now the weird part. Every single one I did, worked just fine.
So the bisect told me the "last good commit" was in fact the one before
the origin/master.
On a whim, I built origin/master again... and this time it worked.
It should not have. I was unable to get it to *fail* as it had earlier,
even though I was building exactly the same way.
Is there some part of the build running in parallel, and I was running
into timing issues? I've actually seen this error before, but only
sporadically.
