Greetings,
I am using 64 bit Linux Mint 16. I can build groff just fine. When I try
the new build system as shown below, bootstrap starts downloading gnulib.

of something that is already built and installed on my machine, then the
new make system is significantly worse than using the standard ./configure.
Thanks.

I understand that you find annoying to download about 60 Mo when only a
