Not really. It walks the object tree cleaning subdirs, but this will
miss certain steps of the build which do not have an associated
cleaning step. Anyway in practice, removing the whole object tree
tends to make the build faster than cleaning the old one. The
'cleandir' steps are to make sure that no build junk has crept into
the /usr/src tree. The 'build(world|kernel)' targets deliberately
never touch /usr/src.
