 I couldn't read the typescript attached (GNATS is very very good about
 completely destroying the MIME attachments), but this is a classic symptom
 of configuring and building in the source directory instead of a separate
 build directory.  In-source builds are supposed to work in theory, but
 tend to be fragile and break often.
 
 Did you do an in-source build?  If so, can you try a separate objdir?
