And looking at this issue, of course my comment is related to the OP problem, I was trying to replicate his problem on a clean source tree. You mentioned leaving old information around, so I attempted to produce a valid data point by cleaning the tree to pristine state and then doing the build.
Repeating a test to determine if the first results have additional influencing conditions is considered good practice.
