Right now, I am explicitly making a backup of the c-files before
starting the build and restoring them on clean.
That's why I was raising the question whether providing the autogen'd
cpython in the source distribution was a wise choice, since they seem
completely useless to me from a packaging standpoint.
Nevertheless, looking at some example packages (mmtk and guiqwt), it
seems that removing the cpython files is an accepted (acceptable ?)
solution.
