Since there is a separate report about that I'll close this one.

I ran `make distclean' three times.  The first time it ran
./configure.  The second time it didn't run ./configure.  The
third time it didn't run at all because of the absence of
Makefile.

Each time the lisp/*.elc files are left untouched/undeleted.

I expected them to be deleted -- what am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
