I don't - at least not for CLEANFILES; you don't want to
accidentally delete a whole subtree due to a typo in Makefile.am.
I would agree that adding a (MAINTAINER)CLEANDIRS variable would
be nice - but then again, having to go to the trouble of adding
a (maintainer-)clean-local rule should decrease the chances of
accidentally deleting the wrong thing.
