Why that? The former is valid, and it is used everywhere in the Makefiles.

See https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=24949#6: "long options are documented to

need the equals sign"

And we should touch the release branch only for essential changes, so
close to the release.

It's not essential, but it's an obviously safe documentation fix.
