You could just delete these within a function added to
ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND, and that's probably the way to deal with it for
now; however for the future I do think the build system ought to be able to
clean these files up itself if they aren't supposed to be there. I've created a
bug to track the issue:

Cheers,
