pedantic observation about online gnu make docs

  from "3.3 Including Other Makefiles", regarding the search order for 
included files:

"Then the following directories (if they exist) are searched, in this 
order: `prefix/include' (normally `/usr/local/include' (1)) 
`/usr/gnu/include', `/usr/local/include', `/usr/include'.

a) the "prefix" value above is in italics, suggesting that it will be 
assigned a value, but it's not clearly defined what that value will be

b) any reason why the directory /usr/local/include is in that list twice?
