Your right of course, that is the only exception. I always use a build 
directory within the source tree. I has always worked before...until I 
tried now using a build directory outside the source tree! Behold, it is 
now working. Never had this experience before, but will follow the 
direction to have a build directory OUTSIDE the source tree!!

Just curious, since it had always worked before, why is it required to 
have a build dir outside the source tree? Is there a dependency of some 
sort?

Regards, Frans.
