Make sure you have this file in your system.

[alvarezp at octavio:~/src/ooo-build]
$ ls build/ooo320-m12/sc/inc/sc.hrc
build/ooo320-m12/sc/inc/sc.hrc

This happened to me once because I messed up the clone or build directory  
(presumably after hitting Ctrl+C at some unknown point). When this  
happened, a file was missing from build/ooo320-m12. I had to erase the  
whole ./build and ./src/clone directory.

However, if this is the case for you too, you might want to try erasing  
only the 'sc' part under src/clone and build/ooo320-m12 in order to save  
some time.
