I was having a similar experience, so I made a new directory and started from 
scratch. make fso-gta02-unstable-image has just completed building again, and 
milestone5 built fine a couple of days ago. This is the second or third time 
I've had to start from clean because building has stopped working, but aside 
from a bit of extra compile time it isn't too painful.
