Ah, yes, I'd forgotten about that. IIRC the documentation requires
sgml-tools, which is (or used to be) somewhat biased toward Linux at
a source level. (I don't recall details, but any rate I found that
compiling CVS documtation wasn't worth the porting effort for a package
I don't need for anything but mutt's documentation.) Unfortunately this
has a sour effect on writing documentation for one's own patches, too.
I can write docs, but I can't preview the formatted version without
submitting a patch that TLR mainlines. :)
