I did a cvsup from a few hours ago, and rebuilt the world.
make buildworld worked fine.

m4: not found
I also had similar problems in /usr/src/share/termcap, because
the Makefile there could not find /usr/bin/cap_mkdb and
/usr/bin/ex.
I worked around the problem by replacing references
to m4, cap_mkdb, and ex
in /usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp/Makefile and /usr/src/share/termcap/Makefile
with fully qualified path names.
Any ideas what could cause this?
Some local problem with timestamps, together with a bug in bsd.files.mk
(it uses a hack to create dependencies, and this results in things being
rebuilt at install time if something is out of date; building things at
install times is an error and the error happens to be detected because
some utilities needed for building are not in $PATH).
My environment has /usr/bin in its PATH. Also, if I manually
cd to either of those directories and do: make install, then
it finds the programs in /usr/bin with no problem.
The error is not detected in this case because there are too many utilities
in $PATH. Building at install time would still fail if the relevant obj
directories are not writable.
