[New-bugs-announce] [issue29985] make install doesn't seem to support --quiet

New submission from Chris Jerdonek:

When installing from source, the --quiet option works with "configure" and a bare "make":

    $ ./configure --quiet
    $ make --quiet

However, it doesn't seem to work when passed to "make install" (and "make altinstall", etc). I tried a number of variations like:

    $ make --quiet install
    $ make install --quiet
    etc.

The install output is quite verbose, so it would be useful to support --quiet. This should still allow warnings, etc, through like it does for configure and bare make.
