so doc option is in PKG_SUGGESTED_OPTIONS, and
  PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS+=         -doc
will cause all of the not to a) build/install docs and b) depend on
documentation tools?  That sounds excellent to me.

pkgsrc is more than NetBSD, so hooking into BSD base system mk.conf
seems to be asking for nonportable trouble.

I suppose we could make NOMAN force the above default options, but I
have a mild preference not to go there - I think it will lead to enough
questions due to mysteriousness that it would be a net time cost for the
community.
