May I encourage you to use distcheck-clean? There is less to remember. "distdir" may be the directory that gets cleaned up, but the problem stems essentially entirely from a "make distcheck" failure, so the cleanup rule should be named after that failing rule. That, or alias them. :) Thanks - Bruce
