Jumping back to the head of the thread.

Your rebuild fixed things because you reconfigured.  The ./configure
script should be run after every git pull.  (Most of us do not do this,
but if you see strange behaviour such as this, it is a good clue that it
has been too long).

See also 

buildtools/bin/waf reconfigure

For an attempt to automatically guess if it has been 'too long'.
