Ok, then the thing is easily explained by simply the filesystem being shut down in an incomplete state. Sounds like the mkregtable binary had been created but not written out, and the kernel (or rather, shell) considers an empty executable to the same as "true", so after the machine came back, that counts as a "successful" binary, it just obviously doesn't write anything to stdout, which in turn then explains the empty r200_reg_safe.h file. So basically it boils down to: if the machine shuts down in the middle of a build, without "make" having time to clean up partially built files etc, you can get into strange inconsistent build trees and you might want to do a "git clean -dqfx" to get rid of everything generated. But in your case it was probably just that one file. Might be a good idea to do a clean rebuild anyway. (Side note: I've seen 'ccache' have odd stale caches too after unclean shutdowns, and then it's not sufficient to clean the build tree, you need to do "ccache -C" too).
