Maybe something like git clean -f -x -d assuming that you don't have anything in there that you want to keep. You need to get the source tree to the state where git status --ignored shows no changes. Or even simpler is to just rm -rf your existing tree and git clone a new one, and then be careful not to run configure in the source tree again. I doubt that using make distclean is going to work.
