Comment(by pmichaud):
I can understand the reasoning here, but in general I wouldn't expect
"make realclean" to clear out the release tarballs.
In the common case (someone downloads a tarball) it's not the Parrot build
system that creates the tarball, so "make realclean" shouldn't delete it.
It would surprise (and concern me) as a user if "make realclean" were to
clear out a tarball that I created/copied into the directory myself.
Put another way, I think that being in the release manager role is a bit
of a special case and that "make realclean" ought to stick with the more
common "I downloaded and built Parrot" case.
Just my $0.02--
