makefile does not clean 'build' folder

Issue #77 on hold
cypherjf created an issue

On the 'clean' task of the Makefile, build attempts to execute the command 'rm' to remove the ../$(BUILDDIR) folder when cleaning. Windows OS doesn't support the 'rm' command.

A potential workaround is to abstract the remove command to be OS specific based in the os.mk file. Windows doesn't appear to like the command "del /f ../build/" either saying "build" is an invalid switch. It may require an absolute path, or, some magic of switching directories during the make process.

    There isn't a good way to accomplish this with the current build system. I'm going to put it on hold until asss's build system can be brought into a more usable form, such as scons. See bug #94.
