Here's an excerpt from nightly.log

install -s -d -m 755 /devel/illumos/illumos-gate/proto/root_i386/usr/lib/locale/da_DK.ISO8859-1

*** Error code 2

Well, not surprising then.

The problem seems to be the penultimate line of usr/src/cmd/localedef/Makefile

        $(CP) $(@:$(ROOTLIB)/%=%) $@

I can't claim to be a dmake expert, but I cannot see what is wrong
with this. It should copy locale/da_DK.ISO8859-1/LC_COLLATE/LCL_DATA,
which exists, by stripping $(ROOTLIB)/ from $@. But it isn't
stripping $(ROOTLIB)/ hence the error.

Since folks are evidently able to build Illumos this is presumably
a local problem, but after 4 days of intermittent attempts with
no success, can anyone suggest a reason/workaround? So
close but so far ... :-(
