Bug#724201: elmerfem: FTBFS: configure.in:11: error: required file './compile' not found

[peter green]

I took the hint in the error message and added "--add-missing". I also 
made a small fix to the clean target. With these changes the package 
built successfully. The debdiff of what I uploaded to raspbian is 
attatched, I have no immediate intent to NMU in debian (though I may 
change my mind later)
