make distclean leaving something behind

After having run configure and building for my platform. I then tried to make distclean and then rerun configure with the without-x as well as without-fontconfig and a few other options. I was unable to get the executables built to not depend on the X, fontconfig, etc. libs. (according to them not starting as well as ldd). After a few tries I deleted the directory, re-expanded the tar and then reran configure with the without statements, and was able to build executables without the extra dependencies.

It would seem make distclean is not cleaning up entirely. Also The Magick++-configure scripts created by the process appeared to not include the libraries although everything built against them required the X etc libs.
