Global changes
--------------

- Build system:

  - Update manual page dates (TH 3rd argument) when creating the tarball
    with 'make dist'.  this removes the need for a tstamp commit before
    each release.

  - Don't print spurious errors from the Makefile that are not relevant.

- Manual pages' sections:

  - Title (.TH):

    - Remove the hardcoded date (TH 3rd argument), and replace it by a
      placeholder that should be changed when creating the tarball.
      This removes the need for a tstamp commit before each release.
