What I'm saying is that you should have -doc in /etc/make.conf and enable
it on a per-package basis. The doc flag builds extra documentation that
general users don't need, man/info/html pages are included by default (at
least, that's how it is supposed to work, the odd package, like ffmpeg,
won't even include a man page without the doc flag).
