Yeah, that's xkeyboard-config. I think some people posted an sed or
such to the list a couple months ago to fix that. But actually, I
can't figure what the problem is. Are you building with MAKEFLAGS set?
There's often a race condition with mkdir and multiple jobs in make.
It usually happens when a custom rule is added to an automaked
Makefile.
