"make maintainer-clean" deletes a bit more than distclean, but it still leaves "Makefile.in", "./configure", etc. Even after maintainer clean, you don't need to run more than ./configure && make to build the package. I think autotools shouldn't even try to support the ``full cleanup''. What if the ./autogen.sh (or ./bootstrap) has imported ``config.guess'', gnulib modules, or whatever? Automake, autopoint, autoheader could remove the files they generate, but I doubt its worth the trouble. Exporting a fresh tree seems much safer.
