It happened some times to me with other kde packages.
./configure somehow touches Makefile.am that in the makefile is in the depend 
list of ./configure itself, so ./configure is recreated via autotools and 
rerun. Back to step 1 :)

IIRC I solved it running make -f Makefile.cvs (or any other script that 
rebuild ./configure).

I hope this helps.
