If by "that file" you mean generated_lists, then please explain this
behavior on a plain 2.0a6 tree:

mja@trudge % buildconf
don't know how to make /usr/local/bin/../share/aclocal/libtool.m4 (bu42).
*** Error code 1 (bu21)

Since generated_lists has no dependencies in build/build.mk, it is
rebuilt only if it does not exist.  It does exist, and it has the wrong
libtool_prefix for my system.

If by "that file" you mean some other file, please elaborate.
