The issue, though, is that we need to ship the pre-build man pages with
the distribution since we don't want to require that people have pod2man
installed in order to have man pages.  So I guess the other way to do it
would be to have a make release target that does all of that, rather than
doing it directly in regen, and leaving regen to only do the Autoconf
stuff.  That's what I did with INN.
