Well, Teodor's commit today did include doc updates.
I'm leaning more towards the "make install-docs" solution after further
thought. One thing that's always been a bit bogus about make install
is that it installs the docs only if they're there. With a separate
top-level target, it would be reasonable to throw an error if the
docs aren't there and can't be built.
