More on 7.0.2 compile problem

I did a grep -n snprintf * */* */*/* from the src directory,
and I seen something odd in the output:

backend/port:2:snprintf(dot)c^(at)^@^(at){^R^_^@^T^@ \
srandom.c^A^A^A^A{^R ^(at)^X^@^L\
strcasecmp(dot)c^(at)^@^(at)^@P^R!^(at)^T^@

(all of that is one line) This is the only odd bit of output
in the grep. Doing a directory edit with emacs doesn't show any
odd characters in the file name, but srandom.c and strcasecmp.c
are the 2 files following snprintf.c in the listing. There are
a couple of strange looking symbollic links (go up 2 levels, then
back down the same 2 levels they went up, and then down to a
subdirectory of port). I'm guessing that this directory strangeness
is what is causing the make to fail, but I have never seen anything
like this before.
