Weird. I thought I fixed this:

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/yelp-tools/commit/794feea447da856d32d10fd74582b0af86a887d1

But it looks like it's still there in some cases. I'll fix it and roll
a 3.32.2. You can safely ignore it. If it super bothers you, you can
pass $dir/*.page instead of just $dir to yelp-build.

Long version: stacks are a not-yet-final new Mallard feature that allow
you to put multiple pages in a single file and do a few handy things
across those pages. To support them, yelp-build also looks for *.stack
when given a directory. But globs in bare sh are weird, and if you're
not careful you get warnings like what you're seeing.
