I notice that bootstrapping recent trunk sources repeats the 'configure'
while bootstrapping.
For example, with trunk (from git) with timestamps 2014-04-16
19:43:46-GMT (commit 888f4399e73a231746c9e5bbe9330c898ed94f5e):

This 'configure' repetition didn't occur with the trunk of few days ago
(timestamps 2014-04-11 06:51:49) nor with pretest 24.3.90.
Is all this to be expected?
Thanks,
Angelo.

Yes, and it always did that for me. AFAIU, "make bootstrap" deletes
files created by 'configure', so the configure step must be redone.
Why are you bootstrapping Emacs like that? You don't need to run
autogen.sh more than once in the same directory. If you build in a
directory where you already have run autogen.sh at some priuor time,
just say "make bootstrap", and it will do the rest (including
'configure'). If you build in a fresh directory where you have just
checked-out the tree, then run autogen.sh followed by "configure" and
"make", and it will automatically perform the bootstrap. Either way,
you only run the 'configure' script once.

I'd expect the new behavior, not the old. 'make bootstrap' should redo
everything from scratch, and that should include running 'configure',
no? Though I don't know why this would have changed recently.
After a fresh checkout I suggest simply running 'make' unless you have
special requirements (e.g., you're on a slow machine and need special
'configure' options). Although there should be no need to run 'make
bootstrap' in a fresh checkout, it shouldn't hurt to avoid the
double-configure in that case, so I installed a patch in trunk bzr
116988 to do that. This patch also tries to document the
build-from-fresh-checkout procedure better.

Probably I need to refresh my build scripts..
Thanks,
