[Module-build-general] make install busted on OS X

[Brian I. <in...@tt...>]

OS X has a file system that is case insensitive. Due to the fact that
you have a file called INSTALL, you should really add the following line
to your Makefile:

    .PHONY: install

Otherwise the file dependency is always satisfied and 'make install'
does nothing.

Cheers, Brian

Thanks, I'll apply as soon as I'm back on the net (in a coffee shop at 
the moment).
