It builds it only if you ask for it.

Do "make man" from the project root, or cd to man and do "make".

In the man directory, you can do things like "make info", "make 
dvi" or whatever, depending on what you want.  There is even 
a "make txt" to build a plain text version of the manual.

"configure.old" should really be labeled as the developer or 
maintainer version.  It lets you do a lot more playing of the 
type one would want as a developer, but lacks the configure 
options people seem to want for an installation.  I regularly 
do things like "make debug g++" which says to build both debug 
and distribution versions, or "make mingw" which builds a MS 
version using a cross compiler.  Years ago, when I had access 
to a sun, I would do "make g++ CC" which would build it twice, 
once with g++ and then with Sun's own compiler.  And ....  I 
don't need to rerun automake, autoconf, etc. when I change the 
Makefile.
