Well it could recurse, maybe?

Eek, no. Deleting moc files is very rarely needed - 4.4 -> 4.5 upgrade yes,
but not during any of the previous 4.4.x -> 4.4.y upgrades, nor if your moc
gets recompiled because /usr/include/stdlib.h was updated by a minor
system upgrade for instance. The most common case _is_ that a change
in the moc executable doesn't make it incompatible, that's really the rare case.
