 Use ./Makefile.PL to generate a Makefile, "make" will build the
 documentation wiki and a man page, and "make install" will install ikiwiki.
 
+A few special variables you can set while using the Makefile:
+
+PROFILE=1 turns on profiling for the build of the doc wiki. Uses Devel::Profile
+
+NOTAINT=0 turns on the taint flag in the ikiwiki program. (Not recommended
+unless your perl is less buggy than mine -- see
+http://bugs.debian.org/411786)
+
+There are also other variables supported by MakeMaker, including PREFIX,
+INSTALL_BASE, and DESTDIR. See ExtUtils::MakeMaker(3).
+
 All other documentation is in the ikiwiki documentation wiki, which is also
 available online at <http://ikiwiki.info/>
