man pages not renamed as documented |

Gnus/5.0808 (Gnus v5.8.8) Emacs/20.7 |
The manual says
| For instance, consider this example:
| man1_MANS = rename.man thesame.1 alsothesame.1c
|
| In this case, `rename.man' will be renamed to `rename.1' when
| installed, but the other files will keep their names.
However, in Automake 1.6.1 `rename.man' is installed as `rename.man'.
Either Automake or it's documentation is broken. I guess nobody
relies on `rename.man' being renamed as `rename.1' (Has it ever
worked? AFAICT it doesn't work in Automake 1.4 either).
Is this worth supporting unused features, or shall we simply fix
the doc?
