Me too, now!

Try this: check the directory/files for chattr problems (see man chattr)
if nothing else works. But you know, I'm beat on this one too, now.

I dunno on that one. Or rather, I'm pondering this whole thing and I'm not
real happy with (a) make trying to make simlinks at that point and (b)
failing. It might be interesting to give the directory 777 privileges for
the duration of the make and see if "make" is running as some weird user
for some weird reason...
Wow! Good one!
