Further adventures:

I just discovered that I can't be in my project working directory, I
have to be in the actual print directory (I work in a different one to
make sure nothing stomps over what I'm working on).  It turns out that
none of the files I originally thought I committed actually were.  I
copied everything into the real dir and tried again - everything worked
(but I'm still getting this annoying log popping up).  But I do seem to
be missing a file called print-printers.c, included from print-util.c
(line 370).
