Yes, unless you configured with --enable-depend during your previous
build (and I wouldn't necessarily swear that --enable-depend catches
every possible dependency).

When in doubt --- especially if your build fails but the buildfarm seems
happy --- do a distclean & rebuild before investing any intellectual
effort in figuring out the problem.

My own practice, developed after a couple of unpleasant episodes of this
sort, is to make distclean before any cvs update.  Machine cycles are
cheap, my time isn't.  I've found that I can generally overlap the
rebuild time with useful work, or at least mail-reading ...
