Spoke too soon :(.  I had 5 or 6 successful builds on two machines but
1 failure on a different machine (at -j4).  The error is again with
setup-api.scm and possibly setup-download.scm; chicken-uninstall tries
to use them before they are built.  So, this has not been fixed. As
before, if you restart the compile it will work.  Sorry.
