I'm looking into it now.

By the way Alexandre, the following files are not removed
when I do a 'make distclean':

  ? BUILD_ENVIRONMENT
  ? config/md.h
  ? config/jit-md.h
  ? kaffe/kaffeh/inflate.c
  ? kaffe/kaffeh/jar.c
  ? kaffe/kaffeh/utf8const.c
  ? kaffe/kaffeh/readClass.c
  ? kaffe/kaffevm/gc-mem.c
  ? kaffe/kaffevm/md.c
  ? kaffe/kaffevm/intrp/Makefile
  ? kaffe/kaffevm/jit/icode.h
  ? kaffe/kaffevm/jit/jit.def
  ? kaffe/kaffevm/jit/trampolines.c
  ? kaffe/kaffevm/systems/beos-native/Makefile
  ? kaffe/kaffevm/systems/linux-threads/Makefile
  ? kaffe/kaffevm/systems/oskit-pthreads/Makefile
  ? kaffe/scripts/bat/Makefile
