------- Additional Comments from Emanuele Aina <emanuele.aina at collabora.com>
If the initial checkout is interrupted midway (eg. because the internet        
					
connection went down) config files do not get generated and that causes        
					
the next checkout to start from scratch (the missing files cause the	       
					
script to delete the build root and the downloaded sources).		       
					
									       
					
By generating the files before invoking jhbuild, subsequent runs are able      
					
to start where the previous run left.
