Actually, it's custom.h that's getting rebuilt.  I've changed the 
bootstrap script to use 'make' to rebuild it, which will only happen on 
the first bootstrap, or if custom.pl is newer than custom.h.

This step is necessary, by the way, because there's no way with automake 
to make it run custom.pl before any other steps.  It happens after 
everything else is built.  The consequences of allowing that behavior 
should be obvious.
