    This usually happens when you've changed configure.in and make has
detected it's changed and runs autoconf and then configure. I've only seen
it happen after I've run ./configure for the first time when I've updated
something from CVS and it's changed configure.in, and I've forgotten to run
autoconf  to update the configure script.
