I think we should add the generated man pages to the
MAINTAINERCLEANFILES Automake variable and document the release process
in a "README-release" file which should contain running 'make
maintainer-clean'.  There is one in Gnulib that could serve as a template:

  
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=blob;f=top/README-release;h=17f026a2c70de984450e2c662535d991e0d0a0b6;hb=HEAD

I would recommend not distributing it in the tarball however.

Documenting the release process will hopefully help not missing some step.

Thanks for the report.
