1. If a port is flavorized, default working directory is
/usr/ports/category/portname/work-(flavor name). and above command
don't remove it. `make clean` works fine whether or not a port is
flavorized.
2. `make clean` works fine even if WRKDIRPREFIX is set. You need not
aware where real working directory is.
