I have stripped the offending makefile that causes this to the following:
(This version will work, but in my version I have a null character , ^@ in vi,
between the number and 'low.h' at the end of each line)

------------------------------------

When I look at Makefile.in I have the same character there... In Makefile.am
it's missing.

Hmmm... 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create themakefile I gave with null character between 0085 and low.h
2.make
3.boom

Comment 1 Per Winkvist 2002-10-04 13:10:20 UTC

I found out that I need to set LANG=C before running "make -f Makefile.cvs" 
otherwise the makefile will be screwed. But should make really fail 
with 'virtual memory exhausted' error ???

Hmmmm
