scons --clean removes generated html, so it should now return you to 
a state like a clean repo pull except for scons dotfiles.

There's now an 'sconsclean' target that removes scons dotfiles.  So
your scrpt should probably read

scons --clean
scons sconsclean

distclean was misnamed, it only removed test binaries, which scons --clean
did anyway. I have removed it pending discovery of a way to chain clean
actions;  oddly, you can't just call an action generated by env.Clean() and
invoke the cleaning behavior.

When I figure out how to make scons do this I'll write a distclean target
that does --clean followed by sconsclean. I'm going to brace the devs
about this.
