Here's the full session log performed on fresh cvs checkout (old files 
removed first). Hope attaching it works (posting through gmane, it's 
rather big), I can host it if it doesn't work.

A side question you might be able to answer: I put this in my build 
script (a bash script) after make bootstrap:
if test $? = 0
then
    echo "Bootstrap succeeded, proceeding with build script..."
else
    echo "Bootstrap failed, halting build script!"

    exit
fi

but the script thinks the bootstrap succeeded and attempts to build 
info, install etc...how do can I detect bootstrap errors and halt the 
script?
