Let's do it:
0) Download and untar pd-0.45-5 src from Miller's website, on Debian 
Jessie 32-bit box
1) ./autogen.sh
2) ./configure
3) make

4) ./src/pd

Oops...
Error in startup script: couldn't read file 
"/home/pd-0.45-5/src/tcl//pd-gui.tcl": no such file or directory

Which-- as I already stated in an old thread-- requires me to do this 
from the main pd directory:
cp src/pd .

Then run
./pd

Now it runs.  Great!

So now let's test an incremental change, adding this to clip_float in 
x_arithmetic.c:
post("clip floated!");

And do
make
cp src/pd .
./pd

Hm.  Don't see my change reflected when I click-drag [nbx]---[clip]

Now I try this:
make && make clean
(eat a few cheese and crackers, check some email)

Pd window printout area:
clip floated!
clip floated!
clip floated!
[etc.]

So I don't get an updated binary in the src/ directory with "make", and 
I do get an updated binary when doing "make && make clean".
