Since --gen-parrot accepts later releases, you might need to
remove or update the parrot/ directory as well.  And nqp/ is
similarly implicated as well.  

So, a true rebuild likely means doing something like:

    ( cd nqp; git checkout $(cat ../tools/build/NQP_REVISION) )
    perl Configure.pl --gen-parrot=$(cat nqp/tools/build/PARROT_REVISION)
