Subject: bug#30357: git tip: lisp/gnus/deuglify.el:221:1:Error: Searching for program: Is a directory, /usr/local/bin/movemail

The current emacs git tip (

c24c5dc4a4cc18e7f1ec949efcfe1d4bae541d02
) on mac os x: "make bootstrap" fails with

In toplevel form:

../../lisp/gnus/deuglify.el:221:1:Error: Searching for program: Is a
directory, /usr/local/bin/movemail

make[3]: *** [gnus/deuglify.elc] Error 1

make[2]: *** [compile-main] Error 2

make[1]: *** [lisp] Error 2

make: *** [bootstrap] Error 2

the file is, in fact, present and is an executable, not a directory:

*$* test -x /usr/local/bin/movemail && echo executable

executable

*$* test -d  /usr/local/bin/movemail && echo directory

*$ echo $?*

* 1 $*


the same error is reported on _all_ commands (bash, git, ssh-add &c).
(as you can see, I cannot even report the bug using emacs!)

thanks.
