texi2dvi --clean bug

Hi,

The implementation of texi2dvi --clean makes for a curious bug.
In LilyPond we have a number of texi documents that @include
others:

    @include foo.texi  @c foo.texi resides in ..

and the makefile accordingly adds .. to $TEXINPUTS.

When I added --clean to our texi2dvi rule, the @include breaks,
it took me a quite a while before I tracked it down to within
texi2dvi itself:

  texi2dvi:421
  # If clean mode was specified, then move to the temporary directory.
  if test "$clean" = t; then
    $verbose "cd $tmpdir_src"
    cd "$tmpdir_src" || exit 1
  fi

I guess it would be much better to just rm -f any tex-generated files?

Jan.
