Ah, it's generated.

Next error, after that finishes:

sed \
	-e '/^# End loader$/a\
	from ctypes_preamble import *\
	from ctypes_preamble import _variadic_function\
	from ctypes_loader import *' \
	-e '/^# Begin preamble$/,/^# End preamble$/d' \
	-e '/^# Begin loader$/,/^# End loader$/d' \
	date.py > /Users/Shared/src/GRASS/svn/trunk/dist.i386-apple-darwin10.3.1/etc/python/grass/lib/date.py
sed: 1: "/^# End loader$/afrom c ...": command a expects \ followed by text
make[2]: *** [/Users/Shared/src/GRASS/svn/trunk/dist.i386-apple-darwin10.3.1/etc/python/grass/lib/date.py] Error 1

There is only 1 file after this in dist/etc/python/grass/lib: an empty date.py.

I never had any luck on OSX with newlines in sed replacement strings in makefiles.  It'll work in shell scripts but not makefiles.
