Depending on mostlyclean-compile is not needed, and this rule removes
only files in the current directory. I added this fix to gnulib-tool:

        * gnulib-tool (func_emit_lib_Makefile_am, func_emit_tests_Makefile_am):
        Make the mostlyclean-local rule depend on mostlyclean-generic.
        Reported by Jim Meyering. Solution suggested by Ralf Wildenhues.
