Yeah, it doesn't look like there's any tests for interval at all. I
suppose there should be. There's a lot of duplicate code in ecpg. Is
there any way to pull that in from the "main" sections of the source
code? Maybe the ecpg regression tests could run some relevant
sections of the main regression tests as well?

Good to hear.

I'm using a script to handle my vpath builds, so I'll take a look at
them later. There's a good chance the problem is with the script
rather than the build itself.

For the record, the error I'm getting is
Makefile:3: ../../../src/Makefile.global: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `../../../src/Makefile.global'. Stop.
