   I think those two patches are wrong. From the GNU Standards, on
   maintainer-clean:

Then how does one remove all the files generated by bootstrap? This is
important to generate a proper 'diff -urNp...' Manually deleting
configure and the Makefile.ins do not look good to me.

Good catch, I was thinking that maintainer-clean was the target that
would whip every non-generated file; but it is supposed to whip out
generated files during `./configure && make'; we kinda use
DISTCLEANFILES for that from a quick glance.  Could you look into
that?

'make distclean' is supposed to remove every file that is not a part
of the distribution tarball. That is all files created by './configure
&& make'.

Happy hacking,
Debarshi
