Now that all the languages are gone, and the languages/ directory is
empty, the release tarball won't contain a languages/ directory.
config/gen/makefiles.pm assumes there is such a directory, and tries to
create languages/Makefile without first creating the languages/ directory.
I can think of three possible solutions:
1. config/gen/makefiles.pm should simply mkdir("languages", 0777).
2. lib/Parrot/Configure/Compiler.pm could do a splitpath() and then
create the $directory if necessary.
3. The 'make release' step could include creating an empty languages
directory.
I personally like #1 and have attached a simple patch.
