clean out all the way around?
What do you think about the idea of chipping out the stucco all the way around the frame and then caulking.
Seem to me a more flexible layer might mitigate further cracking and flaking.
Advisable?

I don't know that I'd go as far as chipping out the stucco but dragging the edge of a putty knife or screwdriver should give you enough area for the caulking to bond to and still look neat.
