There were a few infelicities in my initial packaging of nbd-2.4.23.
You found another one. I had to redo the package twice already,
because:

1) I forgot to switch the default makefile test config back to
    non-devfs naming conventions.

2) In a fit of zeal I removed two stanzas from nbd-client.c that looked
   equal to the stanza below them, but weren't .. they tested for the
   non-devfs naming scheme - and I didn't notice that I'd erased the
   test.

3) as you noticed, I forgot to add a "touch blah" in the main Makefile
   after autoconf has run and NOT made changes to config.h. Without
   that it'll rerun again the next time provided that the config is the
   same.

I'll fix 3) and repackage.
