I have 3.81.90 (cvs).
Under "Functions That Control Make"
It doesn't seem clear where $(warning) and $(error) get directed
(stderr).
$(info) is clear -- stdout.
Instead of saying:
"the resulting message is displayed"
it would be more accurate to say
"the resulting message is written to stderr"
Also, "Functions That Control Make" doesn't seem to be accurate
(only $(error) controls make -- perhaps
"Functions to Display Information/Control Make"
(warning/info is a different class than error).
