For info, the file was corrupted, it had the right date and size, just a bunch of NULL characters in it, about the middle of line 1123 to about line 1130... Just ftp'd another copy of it, overwrote it, and started the make world again, and all went fine. (except the wait of course) Disk will be fsck'd later, when I can touch the machine if it fails.
