ATM the toplevel configury does not run configure in contrib/vt/vt, if
that is disabled.  I think that's intended.  But it also means that a
distribution built from such a build tree cannot be complete, i.e.,
contain all contribs, because their Makefiles do not exist which contain
the respective dist rules.  Likewise for distclean and maintainer-clean.

I suppose for distclean, this could be worked around uglily (please
speak up if you want me to take a shot at it), but if you want all of
these to work out of the box even for --enable-contrib-no-build=vt, then
you need to run configure for vt every time.  Sorry 'bout that.

Cheers,
Ralf
