That's actually a little different - by not having 'all: html', we  
don't force a rebuild of the documentation just because asciidoc is  
installed. (Note that 'make' doesn't currently force a rebuild of  
docs/ either.)

Maybe it's OK to do a rebuild, as long as their copy of asciidoc is  
new enough. That'll be another autoconf test :-/

Yeah, I was going to fix that after I got it to recurse into the docs/ 
website directory.
