Then "all" should similarly be renamed to "build". I like the idea
of consistent naming. It's a pity we don't have synonyms in make(1).build: buildprogram buildscripts buildfiles buildmanpages buildincludes Then s/build/install/g. "build" should probably be left as "all" for compatibility, I'm not sure. Then we could say that we reserve target names "all.*" and "install.*", to avoid possible clashes. I will see if I can implement something like that in a long term.
