I agree it would be good to add these variables there.  But, note that
this variable is documented:

https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Options_002fRecursion.html#index-MAKEOVERRIDES

You can find this by searching the index of the manual:

https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Name-Index.html

I think looking in the manual is usually a better bet than looking in
stackoverflow, at least initially :).
