Good point.
Normally, I would not want a Makefile rule to remove something
it could not create. But this is a little different.
A "clean" rule has the responsibility to remove all things
any _instantiation_ of a Makefile.in might create.
I've reverted that part, and adjusted the preceding ChangeLog entry:
* modules/sys_time (Makefile.am) [MOSTLYCLEANFILES]: Do use
sys/time.h here, reverting that part of the previous change:
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/8959>.
