That sounds like standard Ubuntu issues that all software developers have. I 
don't what missing.sh is though.

You don't need to run sudo. NetBSD is able to build everything as an 
unprivileged user. A lot of people seem to have a script wrapper for build.sh 
that supplies their personally preferred options to build.sh. Mine always 
specifies "-U" for an unprivileged build.

That looks like a problem alright. I'm copying my source tree into an Ubuntu 
12.04 VM now to see if I can see anything, but there are many people on this 
list how know a lot more about the toolchain than me.
