Same result, basically. This time I got to a recursion about 180 proc's
deep when something failed ( happily ) and unwound the stack.
Next experiment is to cd into the source tree to do the build: the

THIS IS STILL A BUG! Building from inside is, in fact, discouraged,
IIRC, in the Autotools references.
