Here is the last build log: 

  mkdir "oo-spd"
  mkdir "oo-spd/i386"
  echo oo-spd/i386 > stamp_BLD
  rm gl-tmp

Executing: 
  cmd /c "fc /b gl-tmp globals.h >nul 2>&1 || cp -f gl-tmp globals.h"

directly on cmd.exe seems OK.  I don't know why it fails in
bootstrapping?   I simply replace that line with: 
  cp -f gl-tmp globals.h  # Wouldn't this be simpler & good enough? 

Now it bootstraps.
