Indeed, but only limited. Trying building
pkgsrc/print/ghostscript-esp-nox11
a message appeared that
/var/db/autoswc/config.cache.default
had changed and that I had to do a ``make distclean'' and/or delete
this file.
But I simply reinvoked autoswc and it then worked.

But before trying to build that pkg I built others without having
problems.

And since then all goes well, (again) -- also with the same pkg
(above ghostscript-*) that I deinstalled, dist- and clean-/depends'd
before I have tried it again.
