The only thing I see any evidence for is a broken version of gmake on
octopus.

gmake[3]: Entering directory
`/raid0/buildfarm/buildfarm/HEAD/pgsql.54583/src/backend/utils/mb/conversion_procs/ascii_and_mic'
../../../../../../src/Makefile.shlib:250: *** missing separator.  Stop.
gmake[3]: Leaving directory
`/raid0/buildfarm/buildfarm/HEAD/pgsql.54583/src/backend/utils/mb/conversion_procs/ascii_and_mic'
gmake[2]: *** [all] Error 2

If there were a genuine syntax error in that command, we'd all be seeing
this.

What gmake version is octopus using, anyway?
