[ I know it's not really related but anyway: ]

Let me disagree here.  Removing those files in 99% of my cases does nothing
better than significantly lengthen to time to get a working system.
Yes, `bootstrap-clean' (which I'd call `spotless' or `cvsclean' since it's
not only used for bootstrapping purposes) should remove those files, but
not `bootstrap'.

If people want to use `bootstrap' to get a "fully clean build", they should
first do a `bootstrap-clean' explicitly.
