In adding group/other read permissions I stumbled into it:
Because there is no clear way of saying "autogen.1 does not
depend upon the executable, but you have to create the
executable in order to re-create autogen.1", there is a
phony dependency of autogen.1 on autogen (the executable).
I am open to suggestions on a reasonable fix, but I don't
think "make" has the appropriate expressiveness.
Meanwhile, two solutions:
1. configure && make && make && sudo make install
2. configure && make && make install DESTDIR=$HOME/stage
cd $HOME/stage
sudo cp -fr $f /.
the latter is "more correct", but more bother, too.
