I usually create a Makefile with rules to 'make run', 'make test' and so
on, as appropriate (and a plain 'make' to build a local virtualenv for
isolation, bootstrap bin/buildout with it, and run bin/buildout
whenever buildout.cfg or versions.cfg or my setup.py changes).

I've never found the need to 'make clean' a buildout project, but if I
did, I'd add a makefile rule.
