I seem to be having trouble building sid now. Specifically

o The generate libtool scripts seem to expect the environment variable 
SED to be set to a working sed
o I'm getting this error when linking in cgen-cpu

/bin/sh ./libtool --tag=CXX --mode=link c++ -g     -o libcgencpu.la 
-rpath /notnfs/brolley/sources/install/i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib/sidcomp 
-module -no-undefined compCGEN.lo tracedis.lo ms1/libms1.la  
-L../../../libiberty/pic -liberty cgen-asm.lo cgen-dis.lo cgen-opc.lo 
dis-buf.lo dis-init.lo -lpthread -lm
./libtool: line 1: cd: ../../../libiberty/pic: No such file or directory

...worked around by creating an empty libibrty/pic directory) but then 
later...

I've refreshed libiberty and rebuilt it from scratch, bit I don't get a 
libiberty/pic directory in my build tree. Is there some configure option 
I need? I'm using autoconf 2.59, automake 1.9.5 and libtool 1.5.18

uname -a says
