Well, I did actually try a reconfig, but I did not actually rebuild config
itself, so I thought I'd give it a shot...  and just to make sure, I
re-installed the 19980808 snapshot, giving myself a totally clean system,
rebuilt config from sources supped today, and tried to build a kernel from
sources ALSO supped today.  No dice - same error.  I'm wondering if others
building macppc perhaps have some local changes that haven't made it into
the main tree...?  

(Incidentally, my original message took over two days to appear on the
list... what's up?)
