This is a simple built-in step that will remove <code>.pyc</code> files from the
workdir. This is useful in builds that update their source (and thus do not
automatically delete <code>.pyc</code> files) but where some part of the build
process is dynamically searching for Python modules. Notably, trial has a bad
habit of finding old test modules.
