Hi everyone!

I decided to try EMC2 software. I run it on Gentoo (kernel 2.6.27-gentoo-r8). 
I've installed it from CVS yesterday. I've used this instruction: 
http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?Installing_EMC2#Getting_the_source_with_CVS
Then I've made this:
 $ cd src
 $ ./configure --enable-run-in-place --enable-simulator
 $ make
And it worked.

But when i was trying to run it for maybe 4th time (no logout meanwhile) I've 
got this message:

I've tried many times. Also by recompiling and even by removing all files (also 
.emcrc) and by downloading the source again. Without any success. 
Could somebody help with that issue?
