Thanks Rhys,
I had not thought about other directory builds. I will add that to the todo
list for next time :)

Hey Patrick,
Congrats on 2.5.90!
./configure && make && make check
Works for me on Ubuntu 18.04 x86_64, additionally trying a VPATH build, using
-j for parallelism, and running 'make -j install' for a non-standard prefix.
cd doc ; make html
'make html' works in a regular build. I've not looked at the Sphinx docs
before. They're pretty.
Does not work from a VPATH build (i.e. unpack GSL sources, run autogen.sh,
create a wholly separate directory, then run GSL's configure from inside that
separate directory). In particular, with messages...
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/rhys/Build/gsl-gcc/doc/examples'
Error: Config directory doesn't contain a conf.py file.
VPATH building of documentation is an edge case. Likely not worth pursuing a
fix at all and certainly not worth holding up 2.6. I just tried it because I
tend to use VPATH for autoconfiscated projects.
