HISTORICAL_MAKE_WORLD from the text that's output.  This was committed
against the previous consensus.  Leave the documentation in this file
as a compromose.  The HISTORICAL_MAKE_WORLD knob is intentionally
obfuscated and we only trust people smart enough to read the Makefile
to use it.  All others have no business using it due to its danger,
unless DESTDIR is set.
