There was an extra dependency for the grammar.h files; I fixed this now in svn rev 47643. The re-build of svnversion.h is still there; for some reason it wants to get built before the check, so it is in the list of targets for the initial Make process, and the final Make process in the same direct

Sorry, so I mis-used the word 'clean' in this context. These lines are popping up after running make twice in a row, i.e. the first time it builds, the second time it should do nothing at all (since nothing's changed) but it's still running lemon for some reason. This happens on a completely fres
