I use NOCLEAN when I have had a build die. If I can fix it, I do and 
then continue on with NOCLEAN. If changes to something like libc come 
in, every module on your system may use it and I don't think a NOCLEAN 
is appropriate.

You don't have to update for every little change that comes across. Why 
fix something if it isn't broken :).
