Compile error: "clientversion.cpp:42:10: fatal error: 'build.h' file not found" #9933

OSX 10.10.5 git clone latest master (19be26afe3d04783a92d032b55bf3fb1e2ae63cc)

I'm not sure what happened because I've been able to compile bitcoin from source on this machine recently until today.

config.log

I've seen on other issues that openssl might be the issue:

$ brew info openssl

==> Caveats
A CA file has been bootstrapped using certificates from the SystemRoots
keychain. To add additional certificates (e.g. the certificates added in
the System keychain), place .pem files in
  /usr/local/etc/openssl/certs

and run
  /usr/local/opt/openssl/bin/c_rehash

This formula is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local.

Apple has deprecated use of OpenSSL in favor of its own TLS and crypto libraries

If you need to have this software first in your PATH run:
  echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/openssl/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

For compilers to find this software you may need to set:
    LDFLAGS:  -L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib
    CPPFLAGS: -I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include
For pkg-config to find this software you may need to set:
    PKG_CONFIG_PATH: /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/pkgconfig

... but I did set those flags (output of configure):

Options used to compile and link:
  with wallet   = yes
  with gui / qt = no
  with zmq      = no
  with test     = yes
  with bench    = yes
  with upnp     = yes
  debug enabled = no
  werror        = no

  target os     = darwin
  build os      = darwin

  CC            = gcc
  CFLAGS        = -g -O2
  CPPFLAGS      = -I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include -DHAVE_BUILD_INFO -D__STDC_FORMAT_MACROS -I/usr/local/opt/berkeley-db@4/include -DMAC_OSX
  CXX           = g++ -std=c++11
  CXXFLAGS      = -g -O2 -Wall -Wextra -Wformat -Wvla -Wformat-security -Wshadow -Wno-unused-parameter -Wno-self-assign -Wno-unused-local-typedef -Wno-deprecated-register
  LDFLAGS       = -L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib -Wl,-headerpad_max_install_names -Wl,-dead_strip

OK, I seem to have solved this problem by removing a space in the name of a parent directory of the source code! SHEESH!

You could help test/review #5872 which was intended to solve the space in parent path issue, but no one seemed to care at the time.
