Should we also make ./mach clean do that as well?

Maybe that would be for the best indeed. What do you think @jdm?

The problem with this approach is that mach depends on the virtualenv. Here mach fails early:

Pip failed to execute properly:
Output: 
Error: dyld: Library not loaded: @executable_path/../.Python
