If, to please the picky windows user, we want to provide on *release*

having the pain to keep synced branches.
Actually, if we could generate the docs only on "make dist" it would
cover almost all the use cases.
There would be also a nice separation of concerns:
1. Users and devs do only make & install. They don't need doc
toolchain.
2. Maintaners do "make dist". They do need doc toolchain.
However, there's a technical problem in that the same "make install" is
used when you are building from git and when you are building from
source package. Yet, in the former case there are no man pages to
install. In the latter case the man pages should be installed.
