The problem is that libltdlc.la is conditionally built.  Even though
the conditions are not met by default (which causes `make clean' to
not remove it), the libtool testsuite explicitly builds it, and,
because the rules to build it are not conditional, it works.

automake should probably clean files for which build rules are
created regardless of their building conditions being met.

Meanwhile, I'm checking this in in all active branches.
