make clean fails in ORBit?

[Alex Nicolaou <anicolao mud cgl uwaterloo ca>]

$ make clean
Making clean in test
make[1]: Entering directory `/software/raw/gnome/ORBit/test'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `../src/idl-compiler/orbit-idl',
needed by `echo.h'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/software/raw/gnome/ORBit/test'
make: *** [clean-recursive] Error 1

Anyone have a solution for this? I'm trying to write an automated
compile script but I don't want to rm & cvs checkout every time...

thanks
alex
