That is probably because you have a stray dfa.o file laying around.
Since that corresponds to a now-VC-removed dfa.c file, "make clean"
fails to remove the .o file. Just remove it manually and the test
should then pass.
Right you are, thanks. Running 'make clean' fixes the problem.
Though it exposes a new problem. 'make clean; make dist' fails when checking
tight scope, with the following symptoms. Perhaps a missing dependency?
space_tab
