Yep. that is it.
The problem is likely that I have too many locations mapped to the same
directory and overwrote bconsole with the script so that the script calls
itself.
The documentation suggests a directory structure:
./configure \
--sbindir=$HOME/bacula/bin \
--sysconfdir=$HOME/bacula/bin \
--with-pid-dir=$HOME/bacula/bin/working \
--with-subsys-dir=$HOME/bacula/bin/working \
--with-mysql=$HOME/mysql \
--with-working-dir=$HOME/bacula/bin/working \
--with-dump-email=$USER
I replace $HOME with /usr/local so that mine read something like this
./configure \
--sbindir=/usr/local/bacula/bin \
--sysconfdir=/usr/local/bacula/bin \
--with-pid-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \
--with-subsys-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \
--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
--with-working-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \

I gather that this will overwrite the one of the 2 bconsoles.
I think that I will try
./configure \
--sbindir=/usr/local/bacula/bin \
--sysconfdir=/etc/bacula/bin \
--with-pid-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \
--with-subsys-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \
--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
--with-working-dir=/usr/local/bacula/bin/working \

which is what I think that I had the last time.
Someone might suggest fixing the documentation.

Ohhhhhh............
I'll bet there's a path problem, and the bconsole script is recursively
spawning *ITSELF* instead of starting the bconsole binary. That'd do it
for sure. A configure error could cause that.
Check the paths *inside* the bconsole script.
