efivar-guids.h: No such file or directory about efivar

What's the series of make commands that cause this to happen? I can't make it happen with the current makefiles, only with the pre-july ones.

i tried to build with -j1. This error didn't appear, but

This implies that the version of libefivar.so you're linking against is not the one built from this tree, or the code checked out for guid.o wasn't right when it was linked. I have no idea what could cause that. Can you show the full history of make commands you've run since the last "make clean"?
