I blew a couple of hours on this problem once.  
I should have looked at the Makefile a lot sooner.

"make clean" simply removes object files and such.

"make clobber" does a "make clean" and removes a previous run's 
libpython, python executable, and configuration information.  If 
you want to build Python a second time with a new configuration, 
run "make clobber" before reconfiguring and running make.
