What installation prefix did you select when you built and installed
it? (The parameters given to make(1))

This is a bug in the build files, unfortunately. Please extract the
files from the 4.8.0 tarball and remove the line in rules.make which
looks like this:
.PHONY: buildid buildbranch
(or something similar)
Otherwise buildversion.scm will always be recompiled, and requires
"chicken.exe", which hasn't been created yet.
