autogen.sh won't do anything, and in most cases, make clean won't be necessary. I might write something in CG 8.7 about this. Incidently, we now recommend an out-of-tree build. The instructions aren't online yet, but they're in git: ./autogen.sh -noconfigure mkdir -p build/ cd build/ ../configure make This occasionally breaks in git, but the official releases are all made with an out-of-tree build, so any source tarball will work this this method. I just mention this in case it's useful for your packaging work.
