    Perhaps I am an idiot, but the build messages told you the specific
    problem. I have no target for version.obj. This basically means it
    couldn't find a version.c that was expected. version.c should be
    generated through ./configure script, but configure only gets processed if
    config.h is missing.

    So my guess is that in wv, config.h exists, but version.c doesn't. One
    solution is to remove config.h and then reprocess. Another is to hand
    modify version.c.in to a version.c and process.

    Hopefully this helps. If it was something else, drop me a note.

    Cheers!
