Current CVS broken?

I've just tried to checkout a clean copy of the cvs tree, and it seems
that configure is missing a substitutions in Makefile.global.in, ie:

make: *** No rule to make target
`@abs_top_srcdir@/src/Makefile.global.in', needed by
`../../../src/Makefile.global'. Stop.

Any ideas?

Run './config.status --recheck'.

Run './config.status --recheck'.

No still has the problem. I'm currently having to edit it manually to get
round the problem.

Oh, you need to run './config.status' as well. './config.status
--recheck' figures out the new value of @abs_top_srcdir@, and
'./config.status' substitutes it.

Did that, and it still doesn't substitute @abs_top_srcdir@

Hmm, if you have "configure" revision 1.74 then you should certainly get
something for @abs_top_srcdir@. Try to remove config.cache and re-run
configure by hand. Most odd...
