Thanks for looking into this.  I played around with the make flags for
‘highlight’, but that didn’t get me anywhere.

Maybe we could remove ‘highlight’ for now?  Also,
lib/PublicInbox/WwwHighlight.pm has this comment:

  # TODO: support highlight(1) for distros which don't package the
  # SWIG extension.  Also, there may be admins who don't want to
  # have ugly SWIG-generated code in a long-lived Perl process.

Maybe this will become true in the future. :)
