After recalling having used `build.sh -j3' for this release build I
built it again, but this time without the `-j3' option. And this build
was successful, i.e. all the font.{dir,scale} files were created
correctly!

I couldn't track down the source of the problem so far; the relevant
parts from the build logs for both builds are available here:

Cheers, Jukka
