($(TMACMDOCSTRIPFILES)): Remove unidiomatic for loop which frustrated
parallel make operation.
Thanks to an anonymous contributor for the report and patch.
Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?59958>.
The bug report characterizes the for loop as a "race", which I don't
think is strictly correct, since the outcome of the work done is not
subject to variation. The body of the for loop is a clobbering shell
redirection operator, so the problem was one of potential pointless
repetition of work in concurrent operation. Good to fix, but not a
cause for alarm.
Problem dates back to 2609cfb727a98809548edfd721c5cb923085b24b, 6
September 2014.
