   Scons shouldn't be cleaning these. They were once generated by scons, but now, they're checked into Git. If you checkout these files again and rebuild, does scons -c delete them again? It's possible scons is just confused because it previously generated those files and you haven't done a clean build since then. If that doesn't work, try removing the .sconsign.dblite file and rebuilding. That will ensure you're not using any cached scons data. CC @michaelDCurran.

   I understand they are intentionally added files.
   However, working with fresh clone, scons -c still removes these two files.

   I can confirm this with latest master.

   What is actually supposed to be the functionality of scons -c? If I do scons -c and than git clean -dfx, many files still seem to remain, where you might expect that scons -c cleans up the entire repo, including submodules.
