Ah. It might be that I haven't updated that particular machine recently 
enough...
I seem to remember that it was fixed, but I cannot remember how long ago 
it was. And my memory is sortof hazy on the subject, since this is one 
of those issues that have (had) been hanging around for atleast 10 years.

By the way, it seems silly to build various documentation as a part of 
building tools. But maybe that is just me...
