No, this is true, and is a slight regression from the old build system.
The safest path for now is
./configure
make all
make dist-xz
The old build system used subdirectory ordering to guarantee that things
were generated and compiled in the right order. The new build system is
purely dependency based, but some things are only properly marked as a
dependency of the 'all' target at the moment.
