I've reproduced the problem on multiple systems. When upgrading from Apache 1.3.28 to 1.3.29 on FreeBSD4.9-R, the Makefile suffers a fatal error when chmodding the files in www/data-dist - this error only seems to occur when the files have a space in the name. As a space is a valid character in a UNIX filename, I suspect that perhaps the code used to initiate this chmod procedure needs to be slightly modified to handle proper UNIX filenames. I don't know if anyone has reported this behaviour yet, but no one I encountered on IRC seemed to have experienced it - I thought I should bring it up. Thanks for your time, Beryllium
