Try "make distclean" and a full rebuild.

Always the first thing to try if you get a weird failure after CVS update.
(Personally I never even try to do a partial rebuild after updating;
I can overlap recompiling with doing other things, and the time wasted
tracking even one false bug isn't worth it.)

Indeed, I checked the buildfarm status before opining Thomas probably
just needed to rebuild ;-)
