Okay, so I think you were trying to answer my "why is it this way"
question. I interpreted your original response instead as a reason to
not change it. If that's incorrect, then okay, sorry.

Interpreting your response as the latter: well okay, but that's not an
answer. That doesn't answer "why are we passing -X?", and so that
question still remains. From what I can see from the last discussion,
using -X was the ideal; as in, that's what we used if there were no
issues with git or buildbot versions. It looks like every build slave
that has an explicit clean rule uses -X, with the sole exception of the
rhel6 slave.
