Follow-up Comment #2, bug #61167 (project groff):

[comment #1 comment #1:]
> I also don't see "man" in the list of standard targets documented in GNU
Automake.

https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Standard-Targets.html#Standard-Targets

That page lists "the most useful targets that the GNU Coding Standards
specify."  The comprehensive list of GNU make targets seems to be at

http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Standard-Targets.html

which says "All GNU programs should have the following targets in their
Makefiles."

This page still does not list a "man" target.  Man pages are mentioned in
passing under the "install" target.  It seems even in 2021, GNU considers man
pages the red-headed stepchildren of documentation.
