Hm, actually, I take that back -- it looks like, depending on the tools
one has installed, it can take a little while to rebuild man pages. So
maybe this is worthwhile doing.
It would be so nice to use GNU make features for this sort of thing.
$(notdir $(wildmat pod1/*.pod)) is *exactly* what one wants and is much
more readable than the shell equivalent. Oh well.
