run "make distclean" or else suffer spurious fclose, fflush2 test failure

If you've recently run "git pull" or otherwise updated iwhd, be sure to
run "make distclean". Running ./autogen.sh is not enough. Otherwise,
due to some recent gnulib changes, two of gnulib's own tests will fail,
when in fact if you'd only known to regenerate a few lib/*.h files,
all would have been fine.
Yeah, this is in effect a missing-dependency bug, but one that is
experienced only by developers who build before and after an update from
gnulib (without the intervening "make distclean"), and then only when
a certain class of relatively unusual change-in-gnulib is made.
