I see what was happening. After unpacking this patch was applied: sed -e 's|$(LTLIBICONV)|$(LIBICONV)|g' fuzz/Makefile.am > fuzz/Makefile.am.fixed mv fuzz/Makefile.am.fixed fuzz/Makefile.am But it lacked this: touch -t 197001010000 fuzz/Makefile.am So Autotools was trying to regenerate all of its shit. Autotools sucks so bad I cringe when I have to work with it. What a miserable set of programs. Thanks for the help. Jeff
