Book's Makefile leaves temporary files behind

Hiya,
I can't remember if there was an ulterior motive for this or not. After
generating the book, a few temporary files were left behind:
- lfs-full.xml
- lfs-html.xml
- lfs-pdf.fo
- lfs-pdf.xml
These files are all removed by the 'tmpdir' target that runs just before
'validxml' so it's not a big deal. Except it's clutter *after*
generation unless there's a reason to keep those files around? Besides
for debugging purposes that is. For that we could easily introduce a
variable to switch on/off that behaviour.
Comments?
Gerard
