make maintainer-clean and distclean can not clean KDE sources properly

[Chris Cheney]

I noticed a problem tonight with make maintainer-clean and distclean on
KDE sources. It appears to be caused by cvs.sh AC_OUTPUT configure
generation.  It processes all directories in a source tree to create the
AC_OUTPUT entries. However, some dirs are not meant to be built and so
do not have SUBDIRS entries.

For example:

kdelibs/arts/kde/mcop-dcop (KDE_3_1_BRANCH)

Since there is no SUBDIRS entry for the directories after configure
generates the Makefile and .deps dir and files make can not clean up
after itself since make does not know anything about the directory.
This results in a tree full of extraneous files even after the
maintainer-clean has been run.
