I think the sphinx- prefix is a historical accident, from when we tried
to control backend with targets, so I don't really mind those switching
(back?) to build-
install-man is backend agnostic. Similar targets could be written for
html and info, but no-one did yet. I guess we'd need variables to
specify destinations. Installing info is a bit tricky because of the
need to use install-info(1) to update directory files
