Extra cleans

[Ramana]

Is there a good way to add extra files to the clean target?
My current solution is to define a new phony target that depends on
clean and put a call to rm -f extrafiles in that.
But what if I want to call my phony target "clean" too, but don't want
to figure out what the default clean automagically removes?

Like this:

clean: extracleans

.PHONY: extracleans
  rm -rf my_additional_files

That should do it.
