no but cant figure out a better way of doing it for a distclean.
these files do need to be cleaned on a distclean. Im open to better
solutions.
a distclean does clean up the links in the base dir to these files, then
configure doesnt regenerate them.
fixing configure will just make it more robust but doesnt solve the basic
problem.
distclean should mean same as "cvs co"
when I do a clean, I really mean clean so that it remakes completely.
otherwise I dont clean when I make (personal pref).
cheers
