I also can't reproduce this now.

I didn't find anything obvious apart from the daily make -j4 plus sudo
make install.  I'm quite sure I did not use a root shell or root Emacs
two days ago.

I try to recover everything I can find in my memory.  If I don't find
something, let's assume a pilot error, although I have no idea how I
could have caused this by myself.
