make distclean seems fine to me.
It would drop those file, so running from a release
would put you in the old-times-state (need FLEX/YACC installed and
set correctly).
Note tough, that building them yourself (even on the same machine)
will generate a different output, so the CVS clients will report
modified files (this seems to be mainly due to $Header$ expansion).
I've had many headhackes with pgsql because of this...
Still worth it ?
