    <p>
      I don't know what changed, but recently autotools are refusing to let me
      run <tt>configure</tt> when the tree is already configured.  I have to run
      <tt>make distclean</tt>.  Of course if I've started <tt>configure</tt> via
      an <tt>autogen</tt>...
    </p>
    <pre>
[sbox-ARM: ~/source/osso-addressbook] > make distclean
/bin/sh ./config.status --recheck
running /bin/sh /home/ross/realhome/Programming/scratchbox/osso-addressbook/configure  --prefix=/usr  --no-create --no-recursion
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /scratchbox/tools/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
configure: error: source directory already configured; run "make distclean" there first
make: *** [config.status] Error 1</pre>
    <p>
      Stab stab kill die die!!
