Uh, that would be a different issue, and I thought that one was fixed. I 
certainly clean/rebuild a lot, and it works just fine with the stuff 
coming out of cvs.

The problem comes from if you remove *one* of the files but not *all* of 
them. We only trigger on one of them (unlike the makefile which triggers 
on all). But as long as they are all removed, it should be ok.

Can you confirm if you actually still have that problem with 8.3.0?
