Please give some examples of the files you're talking about.
Hm, maybe all those files really are from when I was building inside the
source tree. In a fresh checkout (clone) I couldn't see any even after
doing configure and make in a separate build dir. That's good, of course.
The only remaining question might be whether "make clean" could or
should be extended to clean up more stuff.
