I also build in a separate directory, and have that same problem.

I looked for other references to "functions.py", to check whether
anything else expects it to be in the build dir. I found that
"subversion/bindings/ctypes-python/setup.py:build_functions_py()" also
builds "functions.py" from "functions.py.in".
Why the duplication, and should we un-duplicate it? Here is the change
that introduced this:

First step in integrating ctypesgen tighter into the build system. This
adds a little script to invoke ctypesgen rather than relying on setup.py
and distutils (don't get me started on that package).
* build/run_ctypesgen.sh:
(): new script to invoke ctypesgen, given a bunch of configuration
parameters as arguments. take particular care that we only write to
the build tree, not the source tree.
* Makefile.in:
(ctypes-python): use new helper script

It looks like build_functions_py() expects to create functions.py in the
*source* directory, and build/run_ctypesgen.sh intentionally creates it
in the *build* directory.
