Subject: [PATCH] Add "make clean" to build instructions

When I tried to build a new version in the same working directory I'd used to build a previous version, I saw build errors. After a few attempts, I remembered that "make clean" might get past the problem. It seems like a nice thing to suggest to everyone who might fall into the same trap.
