Maybe the "release snapshot" targets should be changed from
	${MAKEDIRTARGET} . build NOPOSTINSTALL=3D1
	${MAKEDIRTARGET} etc release INSTALL_DONE=3D1
to
	${MAKEDIRTARGET} . distribution
	${MAKEDIRTARGET} etc release DISTRIBUTION_DONE=3D1


Alternatively, add the postinstall-fix-obsolete target to the
"release snapshot" targets; something like:

	${MAKEDIRTARGET} . build NOPOSTINSTALL=3D1
=2Eif defined(DESTDIR) && ${DESTDIR} !=3D "" && ${DESTDIR} !=3D "/"
	${MAKEDIRTARGET} . postinstall-fix-obsolete
=2Eendf
	${MAKEDIRTARGET} etc release INSTALL_DONE=3D1
