Well, actually the point is that they should not *require* "make distclean"
to be cleaned; "make mostlyclean" should be enough. So what about this
wording instead?
* automake.in (handle_compile): Compiled objects are always to be
removed upon "make mostlyclean", *never* requiring a much stronger
"make distclean" to be cleaned. Simplify accordingly.
OK?
