(The kernel version isn't a real helpful answer, since it's unlikely
this is a kernel issue.)

While I'm not certain how it would lead to this exact failure, one
thing to check is that your machine's clock is set correctly ---
file timestamps that seem to be in the future can cause "make" to
skip necessary steps.

I'm building on debian etch. The time is set properly. The .h was generated, just incorrectly, and 'make' didn't skip this step. The problem lies somewhere downstream from make, possibly with gawk or bash or the bash environment. If you don't think it's a problem, it's not a problem. I just thought I'd report
it because I know a few others have encountered this error, too.



There are quite a few debian members of the buildfarm that are not having any problem - see <http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_status.pl>. So the question is "why are you having a problem they aren't having?" You haven't given us nearly enough information to be able to guess why it should be so. You need to show us a) the output from configure and b) the complete output from make (both stdout and stderr). c) the configure options you are using. Are you having this problem with a fresh checkout?

cheers
