When you run "configure" you should see messages like the following
toward the end:

configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Jamrules
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating MakefileRootCheck
config.status: creating bgp/Makefile
config.status: creating bgp/harness/Makefile
config.status: creating bgp/tools/Makefile

Is there a line for your new process's Makefile as well?
