Compiled code is recompiled during 'make install'

[GoogleCodeExporter]

pyewbkitgtk-1.1.5 on OS X 10.4, patched per Issue #35 to use the automatic
PYTHON_INCLUDES (same result if I patch the python-config pathname, doesn't
even compile at all otherwise) and Issue #31...

PYTHON=/sw/bin/python2.6 ./configure --prefix=/sw --disable-static
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/sw/lib/fontconfig2/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"
[nothing unusual, all dependencies found]
make
[nothing unusual, all .c->.o are compiled and libtool appears to link the
webkit.so module)
make install DESTDIR=/sw/build.build/root-pywebkitgtk-py26-1.1.5-1
[codegen reruns to generate webkit/gen-webkit.c. Twice. Why at all?]
[webkit.c is compiled and webkit.so is linked; but I already had webkit.so]

So the bug is that gen-webkit.c is regenereated during 'make install', as
if it has a makefile dependency on some part of the install target
location. Given its timestamp is updated, I assume that's what leads to
recompiling/relinking.

I've been having this problem as well; here's a patch for 1.1.7.
