Nikos,

Nice to know that it works for you. Note, though, `make clean` !=
`make distclean` but the latter includes the first one and is always
safer in the sense that is also cleans all configuration instructions,
created after `.configure`, which could also lead in to an erroneous
future (re-)compilation attempt.
Just to clarify:
make clean deletes the files generated by compilation (make),
returning the source tree to the state it was in after running
configure.
make distclean executes make clean and also deletes the files
generated by running configure, returning the source tree to its
original state (although it won't remove files which were added by
means other than the GRASS configuration and build process).
Consequently,
make clean configure ... make
and
make distclean configure ... make
should be equivalent. Running configure overwrites the files which
make distclean would delete, so it doesn't really matter about
deleting them first.
Similarly,
make clean make
and
make distclean configure ... make
should be equivalent, provided that the neither the configure script
nor its templates (Platform.make.in, config.h.in, etc) have changed,
the system's configuration hasn't changed, and configure is run with
the same arguments as the previous build.
make distclean (as opposed to make clean) is only actually
required if you need to restore the source tree to its original state.
But it has the advantage of forcing you to run configure prior to the
next build, preventing you from accidentally using a stale
configuration (one which either doesn't account for any changes to the
configure script or its templates, or doesn't match your current
system configuration).
