That's because you will never do "make patch" in a category-directory, but always in a port-directory. And "make clean" is something that is called from the ports-root directory and it will dive into the category directories from there. > Regardless of my opinion, however, I do apologize for any inconvenience > that may have resulted.

I have asked cvs@ to rename it to "clean_" so that this problem will be away, but haven't heard anything from them.
