Ooh, double-checked.

Actually, we have documented "make clean" to leave around "enough
build support to build external modules".

So technically, I guess what we do right now is correct: you have to
do "make distclean" (or "mrproper") to clean the key files.

Now, whether we should perhaps change that (and change the
documentation), I dunno.
