I downloaded the source, built Mozilla with "make -f client.mk", then typed
"make install", but I got the following error:

I've never had such a problem with my previous installations.

Reproducible: Always

Here's my .mozconfig:

PERL=perl

# Options for 'configure' (same as command-line options).
ac_add_options --prefix=$HOME/mozilla
ac_add_options --with-system-jpeg
ac_add_options --with-system-zlib
ac_add_options --with-system-png
ac_add_options --with-system-mng

ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --enable-optimize=-O2
ac_add_options --enable-reorder
ac_add_options --enable-strip

I can also see this on i686 Linux and Sparc Solaris, building from CVS HEAD. 
Common lines from Solaris and Linux .mozconfig: 
ac_add_options --disable-xprint 
ac_add_options --enable-extensions=all 
ac_add_options --enable-calendar 
ac_add_options --enable-crypto 
ac_add_options --disable-debug 
ac_add_options --enable-composer 
ac_add_options --enable-strip 
ac_add_options --disable-tests 
ac_add_options --without-system-nspr 
ac_add_options --without-system-zlib 
ac_add_options --without-system-jpeg 
ac_add_options --without-system-mng 
ac_add_options --without-system-png 
 
This happened just a few days ago, never had problems like this before. 100% 
reproducible for me as well.

I believe this is related to recent changes in config/rules.mk.
I sent a note asking Benjamin to take a look at this for us.

make default pref install rule depend on the directory

bryner: a one-liner build-config patch, should be easy to review ;)
