  | But yes, it must be a local issue.

Yes, but as well as zapping the OBJDIR - also check the source, make
sure no stray files have appeared in there which don't belong.   If
anyone ever did a simple "make" in one of the source directories (the
one(s) to check first should be clear from the failure) it can leave
stray .o or .h (or other) files lying around, which later builds are
affected by, and can do some very weird things.

General advice would be to *never* build in a directory anywhere inside
a tree where you later plan on running build.sh - get a whole new src
tree (or some part thereof) if you want to experiment and do local builds
of bits & pieces, and remove the build.sh from the root of that tree, so
you aren't tempted to run it there.
