Citing it:
  Use the following @code{make} variables to run those programs:

  $(AR) $(BISON) $(CC) $(FLEX) $(INSTALL) $(LD) $(LDCONFIG) $(LEX)
  $(MAKE) $(MAKEINFO) $(RANLIB) $(TEXI2DVI) $(YACC)

Yes, this makes sense for programs for which there are multiple
alternatives. But "mkdir -p"? How many different versions are there of it?
