People who aren't familiar with running configure scripts will not realize they need to "make distclean" before reconfiguring, and will get wrong results. If saying just "make" somehow requires config.cache to be present (I didn't see it in other GNU packages), then at least some README should say that "make distclean" is mandatory.
