OK after looking at this for 5 minutes it appears that Fred was
attempting to name a process??? I'm a bit lost here but obviously he is
compiling on a version of bash different to what comes with 7.1.

The problem is with the comand %make world <.....> in the spec file.
According to a nice 'man bash' this command attempts to bring to the
foreground a running process with make as a name. Obviously make hasn't
started as yet so you can't bring it to the foreground ;) If you goto
your build directory and type the same thing (%make World) you will get
the same error.

Just remove the % from the %make line and everything should be much
better. Don't forget to not be running X when your making (try 'init 3'
as root to get to the console).

Best of luck.
