Indeed - this was broken.  You need to add one line to doc.tcl (the one with +,
but don't put in the +, of course.  At about line 257

diff -c -c -r1.32 doc.tcl
*** doc.tcl     2000/05/04 01:37:26     1.32
--- doc.tcl     2000/05/09 23:51:56

        }
        set directory [file join $homedir $Doc(homedir)]
        set pathlist [lrange $pathlist 1 end]
+       set suffix [join $pathlist /]
      }
  
      # Handle existing files

Hmm - I cannot duplicate this problem.

I must apologize about this.  The distribution includes an out-of-date
Makefile and a correct Makefile.in.  If you are going to compile anything
you must use "configure" to generate a valid Makefile for your system.
See the sample uses of configure in the build/CONFIG directory.
