No I have not, however this report is not about the latest version in
git (that is still failing with the same error message, about 800 lines
below): it is about the codebase I used to build the Debian package
(i.e., a CVS snapshot at the end of march).

boot.sh: a script that can be used to start the VM (using qemu)
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B7cMsawWW7uSUFFITVJnVzJEWkU

boot.tar.bz2: the /boot directory containing the kernel to start the VM
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B7cMsawWW7uSMmFPdHlMaGVsVG8

debian-testing-armel.qcow.bz2: the image of a current Debian testing
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B7cMsawWW7uSTHd1LUM0VllvQW8

To run the VM, install qemu with arm support, untar the boot.tar.bz2,
expand debian-testing-armel.qcow.bz2 and run the script.

There is a "root" user and a "debian" user.
The password for both is "debian".
The "debian" user already has macemu git repository in its home
(~/Source/macemu), and BasiliskII has already been configured. Running
make in ~/Source/macemu/BasiliskII/src/Unix should give you the error.

In ~/Source/debian-packages/basilisk2 there are the sources of the
Debian package. To compile it you can run "git-buildpackage
--git-ignore-new", and compilation should fail with the error above.

Thank you very much for your help.

Bests,
