>Description:
	There's no good way to build include files without also trying
	to install them.

	'make includes' tries to both make and install them.  This is
	annoying if you can't do both as root (e.g. source tree under
	your home dir, which is on an NFS mount which was exported with
	root mapped to nobody).

	make -k includes can be used to build include files in this
	situation, but that's highly bogus.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Put a clean source tree in an NFS-mounted directory that was
	exported with root mapped to nobody.

	Try to make and install include files from that source tree.
	Note that when 'make includes' gets to a directory where include
	files need to be built, the make croaks.

	Try to build the include files without installing them, and note
	that there's no make target that'll let you do that.

>Fix:
	Below is a sample diff which adds a 'makeincludes' target
	which just makes include files.

	It works, but I think it's not a particularly good
	solution.  'make includes' should (only) make include files,
	and there should be a new target (maybe "installincludes")
	which is responsible for installing them.
