'make distclean'

seems to be doing OK now.

This is on a:

ella sage/4.4.4$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga)
ella sage/4.4.4$ uname -a
Linux ella.cecm.sfu.ca 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5 #1 SMP Sun May 2 04:17:42
EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

where building sage from source usually doesn't give me trouble.
The building of MPIR finished successfully very quickly after
restarting, so I think MPIR was built almost completely already and
the make clean probably didn't do too much.

There's too little information above for me to see what went wrong. It should be noted that the output of commands will be mixed too, as different packages are all being built at the same time.

There is one possible thing I think could go wrong on the *.math.washington.edu network related to how the NFS disks are shared. The ZIL log has been disabled on the server with the disks (called 'disk') which means that that the a file could appear to have been committed to disk, when in fact it has not. I would not be totally surprised if we got hit with problems on NFS file systems there

Building on NFS file systems should be ok if the systems are set up correctly, but problems might occur if things like the ZIL log is disabled, or perhaps if the server and client are not accurately synced in time.

What I find a bit odd, is that MPIR does not to my knowledge rely on any libraries, but there is too little output to see above.

The only downside I've personally found have been that my computer gets more noisy, as the CPU is working harder so the fans have to rotate faster!
