First, you should be using extraclean, not maintainer-clean; see the
top-level Makefile.in for the documentation of the various clean
targets.
And second, we should simply make sure extraclean removes all the
generated files, as documented, and keep it that way. Looking into
.gitignore means either building its interpreter into our build system
(a non-trivial job, AFAIU), or using Git itself to do the job, which
would mean the job cannot be done without Git -- a disadvantage, IMO.
