Using coreutils 9.6 on a vanilla Fedora 40 system, with no ./configure customizations,

This works:
$ make src/sort
...
$ src/sort --version
sort (GNU coreutils) 9.6

This fails:
$ ./configure && make -j2 src/sort
...
  GEN      src/version.c
  CC       lib/libcoreutils_a-hard-locale.o
  CC       lib/libcoreutils_a-hash.o

Let's try again:
$ make -j2 src/sort
  CC       src/sort.o
  CC       src/version.o
src/version.c:2:10: fatal error: version.h: No such file or directory

make: *** [Makefile:12848: src/sort.o] Error 1

$ make --version
GNU Make 4.4.1
Built for x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu


Is there a dependency problem in the generated Makefile? FWIW I see similar errors trying to build src/cp and src/mv.

src/sort$(EXEEXT): $(src_sort_OBJECTS) $(src_sort_DEPENDENCIES) $(EXTRA_src_sort_DEPENDENCIES) src/$(am__dirstamp)
        @rm -f src/sort$(EXEEXT)
        $(AM_V_CCLD)$(LINK) $(src_sort_OBJECTS) $(src_sort_LDADD) $(LIBS)
src/split.$(OBJEXT): src/$(am__dirstamp) src/$(DEPDIR)/$(am__dirstamp)
src/temp-stream.$(OBJEXT): src/$(am__dirstamp) \
        src/$(DEPDIR)/$(am__dirstamp)


Cheers,
Phil
