With the following, `make syntax-check` now just
outputs the name of each rule unless there is an issue:

commit 7dd4725bd682523792bb28ee9e71dfe778922e39
Author: Pádraig Brady <address@hidden>
Date:   Thu Feb 18 08:38:30 2010 +0000

    maint: clean up the output from syntax-check rules

    * cfg.mk (sc_tight_scope): Pass the -s (silent) flag to `make`
    so that it doesn't report about calling sub makes.
    (sc_check-AUTHORS): Likewise.
    (sc_strftime_check): Don't display stderr from info.
    * src/Makefile.am (sc_tight_scope): Don't annotate with "GEN".
    (sc_check-AUTHORS): Likewise.
