 There have been a few occasions when I've had to do a "make

 Each time, it was because some generated file was not marked as generated in
 the Makefile.  Then, on upgrading the containing package, the file would not
 get regenerated from the new sources.  Each time I have discovered something
 like that, I've bugged the maintainer to fix the Makefile.  Maybe there are
 no cases like this left.  To be sure, somebody needs to:
 (1) build all of the packages in a fresh CVS checkout;
 (2) do a "make distclean" there; and
 (3) diff against another fresh CVS checkout.

Okay, so I did it.  Here's what got left behind after "make distclean"
that a CVS checkout didn't create in the first place:
Local.rules
macro.list

Of course I made both of those files myself.  On the other hand,
here's what the CVS checkout gave me that got erased by "make
distclean":
xemacs-packages/auctex/CHANGES
xemacs-packages/auctex/README

I've already expressed my opinion that those two files should not be in CVS.

And that's it.
