It is defined there.  there is also a "pathnames.h" in common.  The one in common 
gets picked?  Not the one in build.  I inserted:

   #include "../build/pathnames.h" 

after the include of "pathnames.h".  vi compiles ok and seems to work?

I re-loaded from:

   ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-current/tar_files

(I think that's the path I used?) last night (about 01:30 today actually). 
I still have this problem.

Very strange!
