We could update the makefile so that make clean really cleans up the
installation "junk" before installing a new version. I personnally would
find it very useful, but the makefile needs a bit of love. Typically "make"
would run make clean and make install.
I can work on that if people agree that having a nice makefile would be
useful.

Cheers,
N
