I consider it a bug that GNUstep Make ignores the @setfilename Texinfo command and attempts (and fails) to build/clean/install generated files with the same output name as the .texi.  Automake has coped with this since day one, if I'm not mistaken.  There are various valid scenarios when @setfilename is used and set to a different file than the .texi, and IMO any sane build system should obey.

The attached patch takes care of this.  Tested with Base, Gui, Back, Gorm and DBusKit, with Make configured with "debian" layout.  All main targets (all/clean/install/uninstall) work properly for me.
