I found the same problem with a fresh build, but then I remembered
that I'd switched back to 2.12.2 to build new regtests for the
comparison to 2.12.3.  When I switched back to master after that, git
left some old files in my 2.13.10 tree.  After doing a rm -rf * and
git reset --hard origin, the fresh build had no problems.
(why the mao would anybody want to check out a new branch while
leaving old files around?!)

Sorry for the noise.
