I missed that line the first time I looked. I'm fairly sure
someone reported a loop _recently_ but google only found a couple of
old reports. In one of those it was apparently a time problem. Now
I've started pruning your information I can see that.
Is the output from 'date' reasonably correct ? If not, fix it
('man date') and then delete the source and build directories, then
try again.
googling for 'powers of e' suggests e*8 is 2,980.9579870409 so the
file was approx 8346 seconds in the future, or about 2 hours 20 in
coarse figures.
