Thanks, and sorry about the breakage. I've looked this over carefully &
it fixes the edge-case you noted without making anything else that I
could spot worse.

In case it helps:

It's still a bit odd to have a "clean" that cleans up a thing it *might
have* generated, i.e. sometimes we create & use these via a Makefile
target, and sometimes by manually invoking test scripts.

But any such issues far pre-date this fix (or my commit).
