This is one of the things that srctree handled a bit differently. I
think we should think about pushing the clean improvement bits into a
core class, to make it easy to select slightly different clean
behavior. Either that, or add a hook for it. As it is today, it'd be
slightly painful to make the recipe both wipe workdir and make clean
your source tree.
