Please read it more carefully.  (Hint: not all includes have been
installed).

Actually, from what I've read, I plan on renaming these targets to
buildincludes and installincludes, and restoring the `includes' to
mean build + install.  I will do the same for all-man, maninstall
(buildmanpages, installmanpages, manpages = build + install), etc.
all would mean build* (build everything), and install = install*
(similarly install everything).  This would bring us the consistency
in standard targets names, so that one doesn't need to remember
that to all-man is build manpages, and includes - to build includes,
and "files" (when we have bsd.files.mk) to build files.
