Maybe there's something special about you :-) .
That probably means there's something up with your build system. Or
there's an old config or something hanging around in that directory. Try
unpacking the tar into a new directory... (but I suspect that's *not* it).
Do you know how to use rpm's -V option to verify your packages? Any
package mentioned in Documentation/CHANGES would be good to check. And
check the version numbers while you're there (or did you do that already?).
I'm about to compile a 2.4.18 myself, so I'm hoping I don't run into
your problems...
Ben.
