old generated files.

Timestamp files also live in subdirectories and I think we're slowly
moving away from recursive make, so this may not clean all timestamp
files.

Yes but it helps whenever we include rules.mak which is in most places.

Okay, something to keep an eye on when Makefiles are converted to
non-recursive.
