But, there's no such target in ./Makefile.in (top level).
lisp/Makefile.in and nt/makefile.nt have it.
src/Makefile.in has "bootstrapclean" instead. Do you mean
that we should add that target in ./Makefile.in.
In ./Makefile.in, we already have these targets.
# make clean or make mostlyclean
# Delete all files from the current directory that are normally
# created by building the program. Don't delete the files that
# record the configuration. Also preserve files that could be made
# by building, but normally aren't because the distribution comes
# with them.
#
# Delete `.dvi' files here if they are not part of the distribution.
#
# make distclean
# Delete all files from the current directory that are created by
# configuring or building the program. If you have unpacked the
# source and built the program without creating any other files,
# `make distclean' should leave only the files that were in the
# distribution.
#
# make maintainer-clean
# Delete everything from the current directory that can be
# reconstructed with this Makefile. This typically includes
# everything deleted by distclean, plus more: C source files
# produced by Bison, tags tables, info files, and so on.
#
# make extraclean
# Still more severe - delete backup and autosave files, too.
It seems that maintainer-clean is the best target to make
the directory the same as just after we do "cvs co".
