The released source needlessly runs configure everytime you execute the make 
command. That is particularly annoying when you use sudo make install because 
it creates files owned by root in the current directory. Packagers might be 
offended by the needless configure run if they use something similar to make && 
make install. I'm not sure if that does justify a re-release of back though.
