What exactly is a "from scratch configure run".  I attempted to switch 
to gcc-3.0 by switching the symlinks in /usr/bin to point to 3.0 and 
doing a "make -f client.mk clobber checkout build", and I got this 
error.  Should a clobber build do a from scratch configure, or do I need 
to do something else?

Okay, I just checked and after a clobber the pertinent lines in the 
./configure output were still listed as cached.  So how do I wipe the 
cache and do a configure from scratch?  I looked through "./configure 
--help" and couldn't find anything helpful.  Nevermind, deleting 
config.cache did the trick(my deductive reasoning skills are alive and 
well :) )

So from this rambling post I have one question, why isn't 
<cvsroot>/mozilla/config.cache erased by default when you do a clobber. 
  It seems like the amount of time saved by not deleting it is trivial 
compared to all the object files that clobber deletes or am I missing 
something?
