`make clean` generally doesn't remove .dep dirs, while
`make distclean` does. I verified `make distclean` removes
all .dep dirs here. Is this a regression in automake?
Did you mean "make distclean" above?
If it's unexpected behavior it's probably worth mentioning
that in a comment on the line.
Anyway +1 to the workaround.
