- Support installing compressed pages (Z='.gz').
- Support installing link pages as symlinks (LINK_PAGES='symlink').
+ - Add make(1) 'check' target. This has been split from 'lint'.
+ 'lint' will check the source code, and 'check' will check the
+ rendered pages (as a user will read them). There are currently
+ several pages that fail this `make check`, and distributors that
+ depend on this can workaround it by touching a few files:
+
+ $ make check -k -j >/dev/null 2>/dev/null;
+ $ make check -k 2>/dev/null;
