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.
