The problem here is that ice-9/boot-9.scm, which is an essential
start-up file, could not be found.  I don’t see any reason why this
would happen.

Are you building a pristine 2.0.6, with no distro patches etc.?

Can you confirm that the file module/ice-9/boot-9.scm is available in
your source tree?

Can you run ‘strace -f -o log make’, and send the output of
‘grep ice-9/boot-9 log’?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
