Difficulty trying to build distribution from CVS sources

Hello,
I have checked out today's CVS head on my linux box to test if the DJGPP
port still works.
Here some parameters:
Linux localhost 2.6.18.8-0.5-default #1 Fri Jun 22 14:17:53 CEST 2007 x86_64 
GNU/Linux
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.61
automake (GNU automake) 1.10
ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 1.5.24 (1.1220.2.455 2007/06/24 02:13:29)
coreutils 6.9
make 3.81
texinfo 4.11

Unfortunatly I was short on time so I have not followed this mailing list for
some months.  As usual I have tried to build a distribution by running
the command sequence:
  ./bootstrap
  ./configure
  make
  make check
  make dist
At a first glance all steps appeared to work except for the one to build
the dist target.  That target produces the following output:

  make: build-aux/git-version-gen: Kommando nicht gefunden   (command not found)
  INFO: rerunning autoconf for new version string: 
  cat: .prev-version: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden  (file or directory 
not found)
  /bin/sh ./config.status --recheck
  running CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/sh /bin/sh ./configure   --no-create --no-recursion
[snip]
  make: build-aux/git-version-gen: Kommando nicht gefunden
  INFO: rerunning autoconf for new version string: 
  cat: .prev-version: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
  /bin/sh ./config.status --recheck
  running CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/sh /bin/sh ./configure   --no-create --no-recursion
[snip]

As can be seen it is a infinite loop.  After inspecting bison/build-aux/ I have
seen that there is no git-version-gen at all so I copied the one from 
bison/gnulib/build-aux
but that did not really solve the problem.  Now the output looks like this:

  INFO: rerunning autoconf for new version string: 0
  cat: .prev-version: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
  /bin/sh ./config.status --recheck
[snip]
  INFO: rerunning autoconf for new version string: 0
  cat: .prev-version: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
  /bin/sh ./config.status --recheck
  running CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/sh /bin/sh ./configure   --no-create --no-recursion
[snip]

Can someone tell me what I am missing?
If more information is needed, please let me know.


TIA and regards,
Juan M. Guerrero
