[Openmcl-devel] Rebuilding CCL

[Ron Garret]

One thing you might want to check is your init files.  I've had  
problems in the past where an init file was loading something into the  
environment during a rebuild that CCL didn't like for reasons I can no  
longer recall.  The -n flag is your friend in this case.
