It helps to ensure that there aren't any old object files in your
source tree.  The first make cleandir removes the "obj" directory.
The second one removes any generated files from the source directory.
There shouldn't be any generated files there, but if there are any it
can cause confusing problems.  So I usually do the make cleandir twice
just to be sure.
