I had a similar problem, but I didn't have to do "rm config.cache" - re-running autogen.sh and configure was sufficient.

I think the actual reason for the error is "automake does not generate Makefile.in files that have a sufficient number of dependencies to force a rebuild of everything that needs to be rebuilt if something included by a Makefile.am file is changed". :-) Perhaps, due to limitations of (GNU) make, "does not" should be replaced by "cannot".
