There are two minor points I have noticed while
re-rebuilding bison.  It does not seem that they
are DJGPP or XP specific.

    "make distclean" removes 'src/muscle_tab.c' which is
not rebuilt.

    Running "djgpp/config.bat" without removing
'djgpp/config.cache' rebuilds 'src/Makefile' with LIBINTL
missing '-liconv'

There is already a warning against reconfiguring without
removing 'config.cache' but it assumes that one is after
a new configuration.  It should be made stronger if not
removing 'cache' results in a build doomed to failure.
Or CACHE could be disabled.  

On the first point, it is true that the user is instructed
to 'make clean' without comment.  On the other hand, if
'distclean' is to mean distribution clean, it ought to leave
enough to rebuild the package.  Yet the first thing 'dist-
clean' has to do is to remove '*.tab.c'

Frank
