This is not a bug! It works when compiling from clean sources. I guess you have unpacked new sources over old sources? Please clean the directory before unpacking a new version, and try to compile again. A couple of us ran in the same problem during the last weeks.
I don't know if this is what happened here, but this kind of thing also happens when using rsync, not just when unpacking tarballs: rsync won't delete obsolete files. Anonymous cvs wouldn't have this problem.
rsync should delete files if you give the --delete flag
Yes, but then you end up doing a clean build, because it will also delete the *.o files, etc. I don't think there's a concept of deleting files that were there yesterday but aren't there today.
(and cvs wouldn't unless you give the -d flag).
-d means something different, it's about which directory to work in. I notice that I've set a default arg of -Pd, but it's not documented in my version of cvs as far as I can tell; maybe that's what you're thinking of? Duncan Murdoch
