build.sh effectively just builds and runs $TOOLDIR/bin/nbmake-$mach
(aka "make wrapper"), which is a shell script with all the right paths
you passed to build.sh.

Well, "some output" is too vague to tell anything :).  You can try to
start over with

   $ cd .../src/tools/host-mkdep
   $ .../nbmake-i386 cleandir
   $ .../nbmake-i386 dependall
   $ .../nbmake-i386 install

or just nuke your objdir and tooldir and rerun build.sh, and when it
fails, repeat that install step in src/tools/host-mkdep
