I finally figured out the make world failure that only I was seeing.
It turned out that the new bsd.doc.mk picked up the environment
variable PRINTER and tried to format the documents according to it.

Now, sorry if this has been discussed before, but PRINTER is a
standard environment variable used on BSD systems (it's called LPDEST
on SysV) to denote the default printer name.  For instance, the "lpr"
command shipped with FreeBSD reads it.  Of course, if the user has
this set to "myprinter" or something, lpr will work but make world
will fail.

Comments?  Will it be a huge headache to change this?
