Summary: distutils should zap .o as well as .so

Initial Comment:
Just rebuilt from CVS and got this toward the end:

  skipping 'pyexpat' extension (up-to-date)
  WARNING: removing "pyexpat" since importing it failed

It would have been nice to know why the import failed.
Also, instead of just deleting the .so file it should
delete the .o file as well.  In this case, deleting the
.o file to force recompilation instead of just
relinking solved the problem.

I'm not clear on the problem here; what did you use to 
clean up *.so files that didn't clean up *.o files?  "make 
clean" runs rm `find -name *.o`, and "python setup.py 
clean" blows away an entire directory under build/, so 
both of those seem to be correct.  What were you using?
