Here it is. As usual, comments and suggestions welcome.
The proposed documentation seems quite useful. It does have a flaw in
that it identifies 'make' programs based on the operating system where
they were currently found (e.g. "FreeBSD make"). The issues may
pertain to only certain versions of such make programs, or the 'make'
associated with an OS may be entirely supplanted (or optionally
replaced) with a 'make' which offers completely different behavior.
What is useful information today may become 'lore' in a few years so
it would be good to add additional data so that the reader (and
documentation maintainer) knows the vintage of the information.
