Right. First, if you did a checkout with -r gnucash-1-8-branch then
you do not need to add "-r gnucash-1-8-branch" to your update. The
branch tag is "sticky" (i.e. it's remembered).

unless you ran a "make maintainer-clean" then you probably still have
some 1.8 turds lying around in your build tree. A clean checkout of
HEAD is probably the best solution.

Ok, then the problem was (most likely) turds in your build tree.

Probably the safest thing to do.
