Just did a git pull to the below commit (to get the latest version 1.25.37) and did a local build, this is what I see:
Error: The files ../ocaml/guestfs.cmi and perl_edit.cmi make inconsistent assumptions over interface Guestfs
The error means you need to do a 'make clean'. I believe it is caused by having an *.ml file move from one directory to another, which leaves an "orphaned" *.cmi file in the old directory. This confuses the compiler because the cmi file is never recompiled, and so continues to refer to an old Guestfs interface (try 'ocamlobjinfo mllib/perl_edit.cmi' to see interface hashes). In any case, 'make clean' will delete *.cmi files and fix the problem.
