Actually, it's a simple change to impl.mk

"make clean" does:

        @$(CMD_REMOVE)
$(APPLICATION_SOURCE_PATH)/$(APPLICATION_SCRIPT_FOLDERNAME)/$(APPLICATION_
SCRIPT_FILENAME)
        
which is all that is required, whereas "make distclean" does:

        @$(CMD_REMOVE)
$(APPLICATION_SOURCE_PATH)/$(APPLICATION_SCRIPT_FOLDERNAME)

which is what causes the problem. "make clean" should be all that is
needed, and a "make distclean" shouldn't be run at any time by normal
users - just by the developers when setting up a distribution.

It's not actually possible to do this with 0.7.3 because of this bug:
