[bug #65800] bootstrap oddity: .gitignore discrepancy

[Dave]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #65800 (group groff):

Additionally, after yesterday's build I had to change a configuration item and
rerun "configure".  The second build gave me an interrogation:

configure: The uchardet library was not found.

  The 'preconv' preprocessor program will be unable to attempt automatic
  inference of an input file's character encoding.  See the preconv(1)
  man page.

The first few lines above (provided for context) identify themselves as coming
from "configure".  But my command was "./configure && make", and while there's
no marker indicating where one ends and the next begins, subsequent output
looks like make rather than configure.

The rest of the build ran unquestioningly.

Perhaps this is expected if "configure" is run more than once, but I'm sure
I've done that before and don't recall seeing this.  And in general, it seems
weird for "make" to require user interaction.
