Recently (as in, during the current round of patches over the last 3 or 4 months) all on Mac OS, but until then on all of the machines at work on a fairly regular basis (say once or twice per month) without incident. And I haven't touched bootstrap (other than license changes) in about 2 years.
The VPATH build on the same OS works for me just fine. A VPATH build on a completely different sort of OS (i.e. considerably more difference than between Brand A and Brand B of Linux) does not. This is why I am suspecting that 'bootstrap' is somehow introducing some configuration/dependency for/on the OS where bootstrap was executed. I recall that this also happened several years ago, but you fixed that ...
I don't recall, but as soon as I've finished the test case for the release blocker patch I'm working on, I plan to do another round of tests on all the arch's I have access to.
It is possible that there is some other problem since things were working much better before I installed the latest m4, autoconf, and automake, on the two problem hosts.
I have autoconf-2.61, automake-1.10, and CVS HEAD of m4, and have had for a long time now.
