Linux GDB compilation problem

I have a trouble to compile gdb on my new linux box.
I have the sources on a subdir of
/data dir that is a mount of a fat32 partition
(used with cygwin in binmode, so that there are no
lineend problems)
Trying to compile GDB for linux in a subdir of my /home dir
that is a mount of another partition,
I can successfully configure
but running "make all-gdb" ends with the following error :
A mv command fails because it tries to move a file
from my compilation dir into a subdir of the sourcedir.
Shouldn't it be possible to confugre and make even if
the source is on another mount or even only read-only
(on a cd-rom or owner by someone else ?)
I don't think that its normal that
the make process change the source dir !
The precise location where this happens is in
[all-opcodes]
[1] [all-recursive-am]
[2] [all-recurvise]
[3] [POTFILES.in]
[4] [po/POTFILES.in]
