Hi David, well, the problem seems to have been that there were some
files left over from a previous build a couple of months ago. I
deleted all the files from the previous build and tried it again and
it succeeded.

I don't know what got messed up -- some combination of make,
defsystem, and/or GCL -- but anyway a clean build fixed the problem.
