I don't really care either way. The current hints (.gitignore contents,
INSTALL instructions) point towards in-tree builds. But now I'm
building out-of-tree.

I think this would make sense if we want to complete the listing of
auto-generated files.
So which way do we want to go? Remove all ignored files only generated
during an in-tree build, or add the missing auto-generated files from
such a build?
