Bingo!

I removed the .man files by executing 'make maintainer-clean' and
rebuilt libXi with 'build.sh', and this time the compilation went

The doubt that remains is if the semantics of 'make distclean' as
mandated by automake and chosen by libXi is the most adequate for
maintainers - which is clearly not my case - and end-users, like
me. I read something concerning this discussion in automake's
manual that may be useful, if you don't know by heart:
