Sure.

:)I like it. :-)

:)But you were saying that the docs should not be built by default. So 
:)shouldn't everything be inverted?:
:)--enable-docs
:)./doconf --enable-html-doc --enable-ps-doc --enable-pdf-doc

With configure scripts, you automatically get both --enable-foo and 
--disable-foo. How the defaults end up is up to the developer.

The attached patch adds the --enable-doc/--disable-doc options (with disable 
the default). If --enable-doc is given, the user can still disable one or 
more of the formats with the --disable-*-doc options (i.e. they could only 
build html with this: --enable-doc --disable-pdf-doc --disable-ps-doc).

Any objections to this patch?
