Oh God, yet another 'make clean' option!!! How many "clean" options
does the Lazarus project have??
While I agree with you that too many "clean" targets are not that nice
(did you see the "bigideclean" that Matthias wrote? ;) ), I can assure
you that "distclean" is rather common among Unix projects.
For a possible explanation see here:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/what-is-the-difference-between-make-distclean-and-make-clean-284353/
The use in FPC for clean vs. distclean is the following:
* clean removes the generated files (*.ppu, *.a, *.o, etc.)
* distclean ALSO(!) removes the generated fpmake-$target files (they
don't need to be compiled on each "make all")

Sven
