gst-libav fails to build because of a libavcodec/x86/simple_idct.c compilation error

With latest git master, building gst-libav has proven to be impossible so far. This is because the build fails with this error: ** No rule to make target 'libavcodec/x86/simple_idct.c', needed by 'libavcodec/x86/simple_idct.o'. Stop. I build GStreamer for the PC, on a Ubuntu 17.04 installation.
Have you tried a fresh checkout and/or $ git clean -x -d -f $ git submodule foreach git clean -x -d -f $ ./autogen.sh ?
I did. Didn't help. However, I completely erased my copy and did a clean git clone, and it worked. Strange. Anyway, sorry, false alert.
