[Max Howell]

Only the swift formula. But could be something with the same link name etc. etc.

If seen stranger things in my time.

However I was in the root of the https://github.com/apple/swift <https://github.com/apple/swift> repository that already has a `test` directory. That is why it couldn't link. Sigh. Once I renamed it to `ryan` it compiled and linked just fine.

I uninstalled everything on my work laptop that wasn't on my personal machine. Voila, it builds again.
