Hmmmm, yes it will mean that, perhaps should move the cleaning to the check
part.

What I'm trying to fix is the issue that if you run `make check` with a
CROSS_COMPILE set, libflash will need to exist for both the CROSS and HOST,
because the testing for the gard tool executes it on the host but `make check`
intends to run skiboot in ppc64-qemu...

I have no doubt this could be dealt with better but looks like this works and
it isn't all that invasive, having a few extra recompiles of the gard tool
isn't the end of the world.
