currently there is clutter 1.4 and clutter 1.6 which both use the
clutter.inc. and yes, It is also fine to use duplicate bbappend to
append clutter 1.4 and clutter 1.6 respectively. But if clutter.inc can
be appended, then it will reduce the duplicate code. Also inc file
append has another benefit, when clutter 1.8 is out in the future, the
BSP append code don't need any change.
