Huh. What happens if you do a "make clean" betweentimes?
Alternatively, what happens if you change these two lines from torture.sh:
echo " --- make clean" > "$amcdir/Make.out" 2>&1
make -j$MAKE_ALLOTED_CPUS clean >> "$amcdir/Make.out" 2>&1
To this:
echo " --- make distclean" > "$amcdir/Make.out" 2>&1
make -j$MAKE_ALLOTED_CPUS distclean >> "$amcdir/Make.out" 2>&1
And then run torture.sh in the same way that got you the error?
