Released tarballs are produced by "make-dist" script, which essentially does "autoreconf -f", "configure --enable-maintainer-mode" and "make distcheck", which in turn pack some additional autotools- and git-generated files, and leave some git-only files out. There should be no problem to build strace from a git checkout, just have a look at "make-dist" script. "autoreconf -if && ./configure && make" should be enough in most cases. One can expect that HEAD always builds and works at least on x86-64. Said that, we probably should consider releasing strace more often. -- ldv
