I have a package that uses automake and autoconf.

I have a single copy of the source code, and I build in machine-specific
subdirectories (using NFS).

I have a "master machine" which has all of the tools I need; I build
there first and then build on the other machines.

One these other machines is an x86 FreeBSD-5.4 machine, and it has the
stock 'make' on it.

When I try to build on this machine (after a successful build on the
master machine) make says that there is an out-of-date source file
and tries to run some tools to produce the source file.

This source file is present in the VPATH.  The timestamps on all of
the files are "correct".  make says a file cannot be found and the file
is clearly there.

I'm open to suggestions on how to find/fix this problem.
