If you use GNU make, and if you configured in the source directory instead
of in a separate one, you now have a bunch of GNUmakefile's which will
be used instead of the normal Makefile's.

You can try `make realrealclean' or, if that does not work, you could
delete all the GNUmakefile's, for example like this (provided you have
find installed):
  find . -name GNUmakefile -exec rm {} \;

By the way, what exactly does not work after an autoconf?

Good luck,
