Quite a coincidence. This morning I stumbled about the same 
problem, and just wanted to write a mail about this.

kpathsea/paths.h is not created by make all in texk/kpathsea/. 
("make all" in kpathsea is called when do-kpathsea is made in 
texk/, which is a precondition for make target all.

I use the following patch to kpathsea/Makefile.in:

Index: Makefile.in
===================================================================
--- Makefile.in (revision 4637)
+++ Makefile.in (working copy)
@@ -52,7 +52,7 @@
  kpsereadlink: readlink.o

+$(kpathsea): $(kpathsea_dir)/paths.h $(objects)
         $(kpathsea_link) -rpath $(libdir) -version-info 4:0:0 
$(objects)

  # Make variable substitutions for paths.h.

Well, and a few seconds ago I committed this patch to trunk. :-)
If this was in error, somebody may explain it and revert my patch.
