Just tested:
case 1:

$ ./bootstrap.sh
$ ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode -C
(configure)
$ make
(build)
$ touch ./helpers/basic_auth/POP3/Makefile.am
$ make
(build)

case 2:

$ make -f Makefile.bootstrap Makefile && make
(bootstrap)
(configure)
(build)
$ make -f Makefile.bootstrap Makefile && make
(build)
$ touch ./helpers/basic_auth/POP3/Makefile.am
$ make -f Makefile.bootstrap Makefile && make
(bootstrap)
(configure)
(build)

In other words, Makefile.bootstrap is useful for those situations
where coding touches any file used for bootstrapping, unless I
misunderstood what --enable-maintainer-mode does.
