It looks like the Mercury installation on taura is broken.  There
appears to be some problem installing files in /home/taura/public,
from the test logs (in /home/taura/workspaces/test_mercury_taura/logs):

make[1]: [install_scripts] Error 1 (ignored)
cp mprof_merge_runs mtc vpath_find c2init canonical_grade mdb mdprof
mercury.bat mercury_config mercury_update_interface mgnuc
mkfifo_using_mknod ml mmake mmc mprof mtags prepare_install_dir
/home/taura/public/mercury-latest/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin
cp: cannot create regular file
`/home/taura/public/mercury-latest/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/mprof_merge_runs':
Permission denied
cp: cannot create regular file
`/home/taura/public/mercury-latest/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/mtc':
Permission denied

/snip much more of the above

Actually the problem is this:

drwxr-sr-x 5 mercury mercury 4096 2011-10-15 13:19 .
drwxr-sr-x 6 mercury mercury 4096 2010-10-18 15:24 ..
drwxr-sr-x 7 mercury mercury 4096 2011-04-25 00:02
mercury_install_backup
drwxr-sr-x 7 mercury mercury 4096 2011-02-06 23:59 old
drwxr-sr-x 6 root    mercury 4096 2011-10-15 13:20
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

For some reason the installation directory is not writable
by the mercury user (it should in fact be owned by the mercury
user.)

I suggest you fix the permission problems, nuke the current installation
and re-install from the current rotd source distribution.
