The packages which are using GNU automake/autoconf certainly has that. If the 
top level source dir has a Makefile.am, then it will certainly have a make 
uninstall. Even if you have removed the sources, just untar them again and do a 
./configure --prefix=<your prefix dir>. Get this one option correct and you will 
be able to uninstall everything cleanly.

And next time use checkinstall instead of 'make install'. Search it on freshmeat.
