The buildbots[1] don't seem to agree, and it builds fine for me on
Windows. In order of destructiveness, try these:
make
Without -j2, see if there's a race somewhere.
make distclean
Clear out nearly all generated files.
hg purge --all
Clear out everything that's not checked in (this
includes untracked and ignored files). You may
need to enable the purge extension,
`hg --config extensions.purge= purge --all`
And I would suggest checking the output of
`hg purge --all -p` before you do it to make sure
you're not obliterating anything you want to keep.
hg up null && hg purge --all && hg up default
Rebuild the repository from scratch (without a full clone).
