It sounds too easy. But reality is that the cmake scripts don't know what moc 
files exist/will be created. The only one that knows is the automoc 
executable. So that one could delete the files once cmake gets support for 
running an external command on make clean. For now it can only delete files - 
without globbing...

ideas how to delete the moc files are welcome

BTW, deleting the moc files is not important to get a clean build. If you do a 
make clean automoc will recreate all moc files, regardless of whether they 
exist already. So removing the moc files is only interesting for in source 
builds.
