The clean flag was in 1.1.5.  It is one of the fields that isn't
compared with the alternate superblock.  Forcing the comparison not to
see differences in the clean flag is the only support for the clean flag
in 1.1.5.

The 1.1.5 fsck fails on file systems that have been used under 2.x
because sees something _other_ than the clean flag being different.
