After some discussion on #bsdports, it was suggested that I work on
the lovely task of using the current doc Makefiles to render the
Tinderbox docs.

Obviously this has several advantages; FreeBSD docs people will
understand it rather than some horrible Makefile I hacked together,
perhaps it'll properly support Tips, Notes and Warnings etc,
translations would be properly supported.

However, I am not a docs guy, and have finally given up on the Make
structure that's there -- now I remember why I wrote my Makefile in
the first place; I just can't work it out.

Perhaps I'm just being thick.

Any docs people happy to attempt to migrate the build system for the
Tinderbox README to FreeBSD-doc format? I'm pretty sure marcus would
rather keep it where it is; it's an upstream thing rather than an OS
thing.
