This is running "autoreconf" in libraries/directory
/usr/share/aclocal/progsreiserfs.m4:13: warning: underquoted definition of AC_CHECK_LIBREISERFS run info '(automake)Extending aclocal' or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal
autoreconf seems to be complaining about its own library files here. I can't explain why you'd get this for directory but not for other libraries. Do you have multiple versions of autoreconf installed (will probably be part of an autoconf or autotools package, or similar)? Is this problem repeatable?

Earlier in the make process you should have something like: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ == make boot -r --jobserver-fds=3,4 -j; in /home/ian/ghc/darcs/val/includes ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Creating ghcautoconf.h...

Did this give any errors or anything? Can you check whether the file really does exist or not please? Thanks Ian
