It can be regarded as funny though, if you are in the right mood! :-)

Luposian, maybe a command line has gotten long enough to trigger a problem 
with jam. Are you sure you have installed the latest version of jam that 
you can download from haiku-files.org? From time to time, we had to enlarge 
the maximum length of command lines for jam. Maybe you are using an older 
version?

Also, the instructions that Oliver put together are quite easy to follow, 
since he described them so well. It's not like it is a cryptic list of 
steps to follow where you can easily make mistakes at any item. It just a 
couple of steps, but not much chance for failure. So I do recommend that 
you install the GCC as recommended. Because another problem may be, that a 
build system tool got touched/changed, and therefor it wants to compile 
that using the host system compiler.

Best regards,
