The use of $> in your patch doesn't work on my environment, it is
replaced by an empty string. What is it by the way ? The only
information I found on this symbol was a suggestion on the GNU make
mailing list to define it as an alias to $^.
In pdfmark.am I can replace $< by the name of the file, so it shouldn't be
a problem.
In groffer.am I've made a mistake and the man files are not properly
generated, I'll work on this tomorrow and get rid of this $<.
In doc.am your patch seems to work on my environment, but I don't quite
understand why it works for you on the master branch, I've just adapted
the doc/Makefile.sub file which uses $< in a non-suffix rule.
