Hmm, but it doesn't explain the importance of those actions when there are compile problems - either when recompiling (or restarting an aborted compile) the same source or updated CVS source. Casual users (or casual developers) might not realize that either of these could help.

Maybe add a note in section (G) Update of Source Code? (or add it as a step in the detail) Possibly also add a general notes section with this hint? (since it could also apply to recompiling/restarting compilation)

There are instructions in the INSTALL file distributed with Grass on the difference between the two:

make clean - delete all files created by 'make'
make distclean - 'make clean' + delete all files created by './ configure'
