Comment:
The problem with `make distclean` in the nightly builds is that we
sometimes want to poke around in them to see what happened. Also, it would
be nice if validate checked it too.
Perhaps a better idea would be to have `$(RM)` and `$(RMREC)` make
variables that, depending no whether we really want to clean, either run
rm, or print out what would be removed. Then a script could work out if
the tree would be correctly cleaned.
