Description

The procedure delete-stale-binaries in chicken-install deletes all .o .so files in the current directory and its subdirectories. This is sure to have some unintended consequences and should probably be limited to the current directory only.

The whole idea of deleting stale binaries is a bit of a hack really, but I think the behaviour is correct if the egg is building in subdirectories. Some eggs like the sxml ones do have subdirectories, so they may be building in subdirectories, I think.
