Thanks, removing the directory let me complete the build. My usual
first reaction to a build failure is to 'make cleandir' in the source
directories and remove the old obj directory completely; in most cases
if there were a real problem it has already been addressed by NetBSD
developers and the build is OK; in this case I had removed all the
obj, tools and destdir directories just three days ago and didn't
expect an early fallout...
