That is very strange, that target should never be built
in an automated build. And while I don't really agree with it failing -
what if you want to automate building from svn, you just have to run
around in circles a bit - it does point to a deeper problem somewhere.
I can also confirm that this is not the problem I saw when
building ppc, but I ran into a different problem, which I
guess is earlier on in the build chain.
