A target that's even more bootstrap?

Unless I'm reading the makefile wrong, there's no target there to say
"remove all compiler artefacts and then recompile"?

There's bootstrap-clean and extraclean, but if you run those, "make" no
longer works and you have to use "sh autogen.sh; ./configure"
manually...  (And if you run bootstrap-clean/extraclean in the wrong
order, you're left with a lot of non-cleaned-up files, so it's rather
confusing.)

Would it be an idea to have a target like "full-bootstrap" that does
these things for you in the correct order?
