Hello Jason,

thanks for your work.  While I'm not to judge this, and pretty
indifferent about it, a couple of question to clarify a bit:

What's the improvement over
  AM_MAKEFLAGS = -s

except for that this only works starting from the second level 'make'
invocation, and why does the patch silence the usual compile/link
commands for programs and libraries but not for, say, texinfo output?

Thanks,
Ralf
