It's cleared here as well, but I add a -DNOCLEAN otherwise it will try to clean a nonexistant tree. Instead it get's right down to business. AFAIK, the flag is no problem *if* you remove the files under /usr/obj and have only used twice otherwise to avoid restarting a partially completed buildworld.
