I don't think so. 'clean' will clean the "temp" files and dirs created by
simple make run. It will never delete
anything from your install dirs though (again: same
as old non-GNU make). If you're unsure, compare the
folder size after build and after a consecutive 'clean'.

'install' is also working here, so I'm not sure what you're
experiencing, but I'd advise taking a closer look :)

1.) make (plain):
    Builds everything inside the source tree. You
    can't use the result to create any final apps at this
    point.
2.) make 'install'
    Will automatically do 1.) then
    will copy bin + lib created in 1.) + headers to their
    standard final destination. So that f.e. hbmk2 is
    able to find them.
3.) make 'clean'
    Will delete all files created in 1.)

Please experiment. This make system was working
since 10 years for Linux + everything except msvc
+ bcc32, so I don't expect huge principal problems with it.

One more note: If you're using HB_BUILD_DLL=yes,
make_gnu.bat will automatically do _two_ cycles of
complete build, with automatic clean and install in
both passes, so for experiments it's better to turn DLL
option off.

Brgds,
Viktor
