Maybe something is doing "git clean -f -x" or worse, "git reset --hard" just
before the build run, and clobbering important build tooling configured
early in the build prepare process? This would account for the changed
behaviour when ".git" is present and valid...
If this is an idiotic "automatically clean using git" misfeature somewhere,
it might not show up in a regular build log because git output is being
supressed.
strace should show the culprit easily...
