I have, many times.  I usually attribute it to things like having
applied the instructions slightly incorrectly, or applied my own
changes inconsistently.  This is why instead of manually installing
things, I create a script that does the entire install, starting
from untarring the tarball fresh each time it runs.  That way I know
I have a consistent compile/install each time.  If I make changes,
I won't "forget" something I did the last time.  I installed qmail
this way.
