Well, I guess things just got a lot more dicey, as my latest attempt
to rebuild tools, kernel, and userland failed.  It stops when
rebuilding tools, in groff:

It does look like a new c++ was built, though, before the build
failed:

I was under the impression that the build system is (relatively)
self-contained.  So, is my build failing because the current c++ is
broken on alpha, or because my installed c++ is apparently broken (via
a recent update; see previous message to which this one is followup)?
If the latter, what is the best way to fix things (install comp.tgz
from a non-broken snapshot?)?

Cheers,

Paul.
