Just ran into this. It seems openj9_version_info.h is generated by the configure step, but deleted by make clean. So if you run configure and follow the instruction to then make clean you hit the problem. For a temporary work-around, just run the configure step again. If you know you will need to do a make clean, do it before running configure.

I haven't been able to reproduce this issue since integrating your work here Keith. Thanks for removing this headache.
