Nope, because it's the regtetsts' task, so only the regtests are checked. It's 
also a practical issue: On my machine a regtest run takes ~20 minutes, while a 
docs build takes about 3 hours, so it's impossible to check the docs build for 
every patch.

If a regtest run succeeds, but a docs build fails, that's basically a bug in 
our regtests (and we have many missing regtests still).

That's also why it's so important to have a proper regtest for each new feature.

Cheers,
Reinhold
