Text hover in the source window is supposed to cause a little balloon to appeara with the value of the variable over which the mouse is hovering. When this happens for the first time the mouse is moved, a tag is added to the variable. Then when the mouse stops moving, the tag is consulted and the value is put into the balloon and displayed. Looks like there's abug in this area (namely, it is possible for the tag to have become invalid). What version of insight is this? Got a testcase?

Don't know about the specific error, but it looks like something failed to install into PREFIX/etc. If you're just trying to build insight/gdb, and you don't care about the stuff in etc (which insight and gdb don't), you can "work around" this problem by using the make target "install-gdb". FWIW, I usually only use "make all-gdb" and "make install-gdb" when I build, which is why I've never noticed this. If you do care, or you just want to notify someone that something might be amiss, src/MAINTAINERS will list the person/mailing list to contact.
