STABLE this am: cpp: too many input files

I haven't seen this one before.  Got it from STABLE this morning on a
"make build" in gar/meta/lnx-bbc.

Now type 'make' to compile lde.
        [configure] complete for lde.

I'm building from within the Debian-3.0r1 chroot environment.

The box is a more-or-less-up-to-date gentoo box running kernel 2.4.21.
