I see, it makes sense... I would suggest to have a file used as a 
marker, which is put into the distribution but not in cvs, and which 
make distclean won't destroy, that way the configure could check for the 
existence of this file to make the decision regarding src/*.c ...

It's just a minor detail, though ... Now i just erase the files, but I 
killed some neurons trying to figure that out (why it worked once and 
then crashed, since I was playing with autoconf versions I though that 
might be the problem) :-)
