I think that in V5 (b4.3), that problem -- lex files -- has gone away, but 
a similar problem exists with AWK files; the solution is the same, also. I 
prefer to keep copies of these files -- and anything else that I have 
changed -- in a parallel  tree to src/, and when I need to 'make clean' I 
just tar everything over.

The files:
 
src/util/et/et_c.awk
src/util/et/et_h.awk
src/util/ss/ct_c.awk


The trees:
...src/
       admin/
       tests/
       util/
       ....

is parallel to

...par/
      admin/
      tests/
      util/
      ....
