Hi!

While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that graphite2 could not be built reproducibly.
It is generating pdf documentation by calling asciidoc, which uses
dblatex to generate the file.
By default, dblatex builds the documentation in a random path (which
will then be used to generate the PDF ID).

The attached patch fixes this by telling dblatex to use a static path.

Regards,
 Reiner
