Oh, some additional comments/thoughts.

I'll start by saying I don't know why this happens, but I've seen the 
symptom before, and seen others complain of it -- it isn't spamassassin
specific, but I've seen at least one or two configure scripts with code added
by the developer to check for this 'bug'[?]  

I don't know if it is because of some difference in expected versions.  It used
to happen to me alot, but haven't encountered on any 3rd party product builds
for a few years now, so I thought it had been fixed. 

I don't know exactly how configure works, but is there something 'from' the
"configure" package that you include in the build of squid?

If so, it could be that that 'blob', is from an older version of configure that
had the problem on 'some systems' (don't know what triggers the problem, but it
used to be triggered alot on my systems -- a few years ago, then went away),
but whatever, - maybe that 'blob' is from the buggy version of config?  (I'm
shooting in the dark, you understand --- trying to be helpful! ;-)).

The symptom of the bug -- and I just checked the cpan build dir for this, is
that it is targeting file 'X', but for some reason, X is in X/out -- i.e.
instead of Makefile, I'll find the real makefile in Makefile/out.

Sometimes it is possible to fix by hand if it is only 1 configure and 1
makefile, but for ones with multiple makefiles and subdirs, it can get hairy to
fix by hand.  

Hope that helps....if there's anything else I tell you to enable you to fix it,
let me know!...

---------
11.4 stopped being supported over a year ago, so I doubt anyone would
have such a machine around to test this on.

ah, no prob, been submitting so many bugs in different products lately, and
most of the places I submit them, they want to complain about *something*....

I first tried to past the bug text into the report, but it said it was too
large...  eh!  whatever

I included the entire output, so you could see that it just failed in a weird
way -- and be able to check or verify if there was anything prior to that that
looked output of place.

Giving you the last few lines 'context free', you might have wondered if
there'd been any strange messages before that.

Linda, I didn't complain about you providing the full output. :)  I just copied
the relevant bit into a comment, where it is much more convenient for others to
read -- and searchable in bugzilla.

This appears to be the part showing the issue, way down in that full CPAN build
output. Rather weird, though...

configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
rm: cannot remove `Makefile': Is a directory
config.status: creating spamc.h
rm: cannot remove `spamc.h': Is a directory
config.status: creating config.h
rm: cannot remove `config.h': Is a directory
make -f spamc/Makefile spamc/spamc
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/CPAN-ishtar-build-cache/build/
 Mail-SpamAssassin-3.3.2-UN08UX'
make[1]: *** spamc/Makefile: Is a directory.  Stop.
