Since I keep my kernel configs and some local patches in the tree, I
get a lot of:

  ? foo/bar/baz/QUX

so I don't usually pay attention to it.  This time I scrolled back and
saw:

  ? external/gpl2/groff/dist/src/preproc/eqn/eqn.cpp

I was more drastic and nuked all of "src/external/gpl2/groff" and
updated again.

Rebuilding in progress...
