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.
