Yeah. I usually do make extraclean and then build the installer in the mac directory. But last night I noticed that even after a 'make extraclean' there were still .elc files around. So I reconfigured and did 'make maintainer-clean' and then rebuilt. Now the animation seems to be fixed for me too.
The reason things weren't working after a make && make install is that the change was to animate.el. By default, make /doesn't/ recompile .el files that are newer than .elc ones when building unless they are to be dumped with emacs (it only updates the temacs binary and redumps). In order to make sure that .el files are recompiled the recommended build incantations are:
[checkout emacs] ./configure --options
make bootstrap make make install
[update emacs] make cd lisp && make recompile cd .. && make install
There are more detailed instructions in INSTALL.CVS
