Hello everyone,

I'm trying to build qt3-libs on Linux (slackware 9.1). It gets stuck in 
a seemingly infinite loop while building moc.pro...

Qt is now configured for building. Just run /usr/bin/gmake.
To reconfigure, run /usr/bin/gmake confclean and configure.

... ad infinitum!

I remember seeing this several months ago. I think it was with 3.3.2 and 
buildlink2 but can't remember what fixed it.

Any idea how to get around this?

Thanks,
