Yes.

Same as if you zap any of many other files config.new creates. make
depend does not run config.new. Remember how kernel configuration
works:
1) cd arch/sparc/conf
2) edit FOO
3) config.new FOO
4) cd ../compile/FOO
5) make depend
6) make
Your swapxxx.c is created at step 3. If you nuke it and then try to
run later steps without recreating it, they'll fail, yupyup.

That'll do it.
