jam doesn't compile

jam doesn't compile, and the output is strange:

The rc finding algorithm broke when I moved jam to the buildtools module. Not sure why the "if [ -f $RC ]" test doesn't catch this case. I can't access the repository at the moment, but I would remove this algorithm completely, anyway. You can define the NO_STAT_CACHE_SERVER_RESOURCES variable for the time being, if you need to recompile the StatCacheServer. Otherwise just compile jam itself ("jam jam").

Did you try if [ -f "$PATH" ] ?

Fixed in revision 16532. rc is no longer searched at all. It has to be specified via the RC environment variable, if resources shall be added.
