actual problem in ./configure or local problem

[Harry Putnam]

Building emacs-24 of this evenings bzr ./configure throws an error
that looks like it might actually be some scripting problem, although
it would not surprise me if it turned out to be some local config
problem.

tail of configure:

[...]
config.status: creating src/config.h
config.status: executing depfiles commands
config.status: executing mkdirs commands
config.status: executing epaths commands
creating src/epaths.h
make[1]: Entering directory `/anex/usr_local/src/vcs/bzr/emacs/trunk'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/anex/usr_local/src/vcs/bzr/emacs/trunk'
config.status: executing gdbinit commands
config.status: executing gdbinit commands
./config.status: line 2081: src/.gdbinit: Permission denied
./config.status: line 2083: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
./config.status: line 2083: `fi'

-------        ---------       ---=---       ---------      -------- 

Looking around those lines, I didn't see anything my unskilled eyes
recognized as a problem.

The configure file was generated with autogen.sh.  The ./Configure
flags were:

 ./configure --with-xft --with-x-toolkit=gtk
