I added your comments and a remark about the role of make in Debian:
http://wiki.debian.org/UpstreamGuide?action=diff&rev1=58&rev2=59

I'd invite you to continue this discussion on debian-devel at lists.debian.org 
(no subscription required).

The UpstreamGuide is an important document for the "public relations" of 
Debian, so I'd like to get it right.
