What's the scenario in which you have to run them by hand?  I'd rather
fix this to just work automatically than document deficiencies in the
build system.

I fixed a problem a few weeks ago with removed files which were listed
in dependencies preventing "make" from working, so if you were having
such problems with 0.9.10, this is probably already fixed in trunk.  I
didn't backport this change, since it's only relevant when building from
SVN.
