Interesting.  Yeah, that sounds like a bug.

I am not convinced cleaning fetched files is the right thing to do in
the first place (why not just trust the SVN repo?),...

My knee-jerk reaction was that it isn't even about _trusting_, but
mirroring what happened on the other side of the world faithfully.

If you clean what you got from the other side, and then build on top of
that result, how are you supposed to send your contributions back to the
other side which does not have the same clean-up?
