Hi Volodya,

I was using 2.0 M11. I checked out from the CVS repo this morning and
tried again. Same problem.
So I made the simplified testcase as you requested.

Building yui//yahoo or yui//menu works.
Building gui//www/yui fails like any call for an "install" target
refering to another install "target".
It fails when creating the directory specified by <location> (tries to
create twice).
If you try again, it works because the directory has been created already.

Thanks,

Olivier
