can't make



All,

I was making away, trying a few things, then I tried this:

    $ ./configure --enable-zsh-debug

And the result was this:

    $ make -s
    cd .. && /bin/sh $top_srcdir/Src/mkmakemod.sh Src Makemod
    creating Src/Makemod.in
    config.status: creating Src/Makemod
    /bin/sh: 2: cd: can't cd to zsh.mdd
    Makemod:374: recipe for target 'headers' failed
    make[2]: *** [headers] Error 1
    Makefile:452: recipe for target 'headers' failed
    make[1]: *** [headers] Error 2
    Makefile:190: recipe for target 'all' failed
    make: *** [all] Error 1

... I configured plain vanilla again, but still get 'make' errors.
FWIW 'zsh.mdd' was there, but it's a file, not a directory. I
deleted it and tried again.  This time:

   config.status: executing config.modules commands
   creating ./config.modules
   ./config.status: 41: ./config.modules.sh: Syntax error: end of file
   unexpected (expecting ")")
   Makefile:378: recipe for target 'config.modules' failed
   make: *** [config.modules] Error 2


... I noticed that 'config.modules.sh' was much shorter than before, so
I copied in an untouched version. Reran './configure' and 'make -s'
but the error was the same.

I tried again in a virgin copy and './configure --enable-zsh-debug' worked
fine, so whatever was wrong above must have been something I did and
it's probably not worth worrying about, but if anyone does have an insight
into what went wrong, and why I can't restore it, I'd be grateful.
Particularly that 'zsh.mdd' being a file, not a directory, seems very
strange.
