Current build files are OK as long as they work.
I can't copy the relevant lines but I've seen some "missing html.out required 
for XXX" kind messages from make, but they usually magically disappear with 
make clean/make -j 8 (could it be some race condition?)

Personally I don't mind simplicity in build files. 99% of people run binaries 
or packages, 99% of people who don't run binary packages on Linux know what 
they are doing. Or won't mind downloading an extra few packages or not having 
the man pages.
Don't really have a preference.

It's your call :)
