Sorry, hit Enter before adding a bug description ...


I had the httpd-2.0.50 sources in my home directory. This home directory is in
/home/sag, which is in fact a symbolic link to /export/spare2/sag.

As a consequence, the generated file servers/export_files contained all *.h
files twice: Once with /home/sag, and once with /export/spare2/sag as a prefix.
In the following process, the awk script added a lot of functions twice to
exports.c and compilation failed.
