                * to avoid confusion, split off the rate-run function to kcbenchrate (with its own man page), which is
                  just a symlink to kcbench, but acts differently when called by that name
                * convert man pages to markdown, compiled to proper man pages by the new make target "manpages"
                  (relies on pandoc)
