I did this, but the problem did not occur.  Getting suspicious, I tried a build on head with exactly the configuration that was failing for me before, and it no longer fails.  But, if I check out the tag after the cedet integration that I mentioned in my bug report, it still does fail.  So, something changed between the time I reported the bug and head that either fixes the problem or obscures it again :)

If you want to declare victory, that's OK with me, but I'm a little curious still so I'll try doing a build with the configuration you suggested against a version that fails. I will report if anything interesting happens.
