With such major changes in build process as the respository split, it is highly recoomended to re-start with a clean build once you upgrade to a newer/the latest version, i.e., throw away both your prefix/install and build directories and de-bootstrap your sources *before* upgrading. if you're using conf/conf.bash, source conf/conf.bash *after* the cvs update (-dP !) in a virgin shell, and then build from scratch starting with bootstrap ...
in case you cannot (easily) throw away your prefix/install directory (e.g., becaus there is more than MonetDB related stuff), you can run `make uninstall` in the *old* build directories *before* removing them (and *before* running de-bootstrap & cvs update).
(for me) all `make uninstall` work fine (for the latest CVS head and after fixing buildtools, where `make uninstall` left autogen behind. Stefan
Please be aware, that we developers try our best to make things "as simple as possible" for you users, but we simply cannot in advance think of (let alone check and test) all different individual user setups, hence, a *clean* re-start is the best solution for each major upgrade.

ps: patching *generated* files to get things working is usually not a good idea...
