I porposed something for make help some time ago, please see if you can
enhance it, but it tried to explain things like you do (I aws very
confused by the previous documentation). I'll update 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/UsingKoji#Chained_builds
such that it matches make help output, but please propose any
enhancement.
