That's a bit strange. I assume the mac uses  the BSD versions of
install / cp / mkdir, maybe those are not "verbose by default" like
the gnu ones debian uses. Or may be you've tuned tha Makefile. And my
make also detects the last command error and errors out in turn. I
cannot tell much more without seeing it, but if this is normal in Macs
it would certainly be nice to have something for it.

One other thing, is /usr/local/bin in the default $PATH for MacOs?
Because I think I've read it uses a peculiar way of installing things,
but that maight be for graphics programs, or installers.
