Try 'hg stat -A test/compare_versions.m' to see what Mercurial thinks about
this file.  My guess is that it is a local copy you made at some point.  It
is not in the Mercurial source tree for me.

Note that 'make distclean' will only take care of files it knows about.  If
you have copied a file into test directory that the Makefile doesn't track
then it won't remove it even with the distclean target.
