Comment (by zooko):

 Another self-follow-up: there are two questions here: 1. should generated
 stuff (in this case the Python packaging metadata) go into the source
 dist, and 2. should "make clean" return the directory to the state of a
 source checkout, or return the directory to the state of a source dist
 unpack?

 The second question is the only one that is blocking Debian, and I don't
 use "make clean" and I don't care what "make clean" does, so I propose
 that we make it do what Debian wants it to do, thus answering question 2,
 and leave question 1 unchanged (in this ticket).
