Unless I'm looking at the wrong sources or somehow mistaken, I don't 
think it does for libnetutil I'm afraid, especially as I actually do 
distclean between cross builds.

First look I would have cleaned the deps on a distclean too, but as 
explained, nsock removes it on the 'clean' target.  The top level 
makefile does the same, so I followed the project's own example for the 
patch.

Either way, I think libnetutil is the odd one out in forgetting to clean 
this file which is something of a minor nuisance.

Kind Regards,

Mike
