More info:

The actual more complete error is:

/usr/coreutils/bin/bash generate-git-gui.sh "git-gui.sh" "git-gui" ./GIT-GUI-BUILD-OPTIONS ./GIT-VERSION-FILE /usr/coreutils/bin/bash generate-tclindex.sh . ./GIT-GUI-BUILD-OPTIONS usage: generate-tclindex.sh <BUILD_DIR> <BUILD_OPTIONS> <LIBFILE> [<LIBFILE>...] Makefile:200: recipe for target 'lib/tclIndex' failed

This seems like a legit problem to be fixed rather than ignored.
