The one use I had for these clean targets was when you are making a new test 
and getting the test source to compile it is really tempting to run make in the 
test directory.  It's a lot slower to go run the test, see the compile fail, 
fix something, etc... than just run make.  But if you do that and don't clean, 
then when you actually go to run the test, it will fail because make sees the 
product in the source directory and won't build it in the out-of-line 
directory, but the test will look for it there.

Not a super compelling reason, but...
