[PATCH 0/4] Makefile: fix temporary file handling and improve check-groff-warnings

[Alexander Miller <alex.miller-Mmb7MZpHnFY@public.gmane.org>]

Hello Michael,

a while ago I noticed that every time make is run a new empty file
would be created in /tmp. This has been annoying me since, so I
decided to have a look.

The first patch fixes this problem; the file is crated only for
"make check-groff-warnings" where it is needed.
While at it, I improved various bits for that target (in patch 2).
Finally, the last 2 patches are purely cosmetic trivial changes.

I also noticed that check-groff-warnings works only with man-db.
I happened to test it on a box with plain man and got a usage
error for every man page. I haven't included a patch to silence
these errors, since the old man has no equivalent for the --warnings
option, and so I think it doesn't make sense to support it, you'd
get the default warnings only. But if you like, I can provide a
patch.

Regards,
Alex
