yes, oops.

i really have no clue what the problem is.  i can run the exact same
pybench command independently of the build, and it works just fine;
but it always fails during the build.

note that this fails even with a clean python2.5 (lenny) source tree
(before i've applied any new patches). i've even tried a completely
clean lenny installation to make sure everything is pristine.  the only
thing i haven't tried is building outside a virtual machine.
