The first 'cleandir' run is pretty much equivalent to the instructions
in the Handbook.

If there are stale objects or libraries under /usr/src, the second
cleandir run cleans those too.

Normally, there shouldn't be any stale objects under /usr/src, because
the recommended buildworld/buildkernel cycle uses /usr/obj for that.

If there are left-overs under /usr/src, they are usually the result of
manual builds run in one of the subdirectories of /usr/src.
