Hello Ken, Thank you for confirming what I had already found out. I mentioned it to Bruce privately, but he was unable to reproduce the error. It seems to only exist on the current svn versions with updated libraries etc. I had already added it to systemd branch to use: ./bootstrap --force which works with out the need to delete any files what so ever. I am leaving that in systemd branch now as I believe that this will only happen on fresh builds and not on builds that have packages upgraded without re-building everything.
