I just solved my problem. Apparently someone *points to self* included an option in src.conf by mistake: %fgrep FORTH /etc/src.conf WITHOUT_FORTH=true I assume this was the root of the problem as I now have no problems with the initially reported error message. This has been a waste of bits, and I apologize for the noise.
