[Buildroot] make distclean leaves ~200 files under package/config/

[Grant Edwards]

After doing a "make distclean", there a couple hundred files under
package/config that seeming shouldn't be there:

  package/config/conf
  package/config/mconf.o
  package/config/.depend
  package/config/zconf.tab.o
  package/config/conf.o
  package/config/kxgettext.o
  package/config/buildroot-config  [contains 190+ files]
  package/config/lxdialog/yesno.o
  package/config/lxdialog/textbox.o
  package/config/lxdialog/inputbox.o
  package/config/lxdialog/checklist.o
  package/config/lxdialog/menubox.o
  package/config/lxdialog/util.o

Shouldn't "make distclean" get rid of those?

In fact, those should be moved somewhere into the $(O) directory
(output/ by default).

Ah, I see find that a patch has already been submitted:

  https://bugs.uclibc.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1213

I thought I remembered this having been discussed before, but I didn't
search for the right words the first time I looked...

Would be great if you could test my patch. If someone else signs off on 
it, there's a better chance of inclusion ;)
