   `make distclean' does that well. Read docs for automake, if interested.

Something I find extremely puzzling, and annoying, is that some
packages don't define a ``distclean.''  I have no idea why not....  I
don't even know how to get automake to not define it!  Nor do I
especially care to learn.

Not really relevant here, since gtk does it right.  But you still have
to know about removing config.cache by hand.
