} so, what do people do about these directories in the projects under the
} CVS?
} `rm -rf` them after `make configures`?
} put them into .cvsignore?
} is it possible to add a --remove-cache or --no-cache option?
}
} you see, I call automake/autoheader/autoconf very rarely (obviously),
} so I do not care if it takes 1sec or 10sec once a month,
} while having a junk cache dirs is no good.
}
} please do listen: this is a __MAJOR__ inconvenience introduced in 2.53.

I concur. It is an annoyance. Having a flag (--remove-cache) as mentioned
above would be very nice. Having the cache directory is fine, but keeping
them there is a pain...
