Didn't someone send a patch for that recently? Unfortunately, I don't see it
on patchwork.

Perhaps this would be the one:<br>

Could it be that the perl script returns an error? Does it complete
successfully when run manually? Any of the other 32 or so tools in
the tool chain has also been upgraded (if this error occurs on a
system where a wholesale upgrade has been done? Anyone else has
reproduced the problem or claims success?<br>
