If the configuration is botched, "make distclean" is better,
since "make clean" does NOT clean up the files created by
"configure". (Note that most of what Gene's script does is to
run "configure" with the right options.)

The --mandir option is provided to let you put the man pages in
an unusual place. Be aware that using it to force them to go
where they should have gone anyway, is patching around the
underlying problem, not fixing it.

It must be said that they would have sounded better if the singer
wouldn't throw his fellow band members to the ground and toss the
