snarfing

[Michael Livshin]

ok.

so I made the snarfing process (mostly) AWK-free and
vendor-tool-resistant.

now I have a couple of questions:

* the simple question: would it be OK to stop installing
  `guile-snarf.awk'?  (guile-doc-snarf doesn't call it anymore, but I
  don't know whether it was supposed to be callable on its own.  let's
  hope not).

* the general question: how about changing `make dist' to make
  everything which is not platform-dependent and include it in the
  source distribution?  'cause I don't think it's nice to require
  those who build from source to have a recent makeinfo etc.  (those
  who are foolish enough to _change_ the source are another matter, of
  course).
