Seems simple enough that we ought to make it part of the
scripts/clean-includes, rather than remembering to manually run it.

Yes - whatever we end up with (whether a manual script or a run of

verify that you didn't miss anything, and for someone else to repeat the
process in another year when some mistakes have crept back in during the
meantime.
