I get this occasionally (I think it sometimes happens after I've
interrupted a make World).
"make world" makes the Makefiles; I'm guessing that it finds some of them 
so doesn't make the rest, then make clean and make all fail because
some Makefiles are missing.

Try "make Makefiles".

I don't know why the tarballs should be in this state; I'd call it a bug.
