That should be ``DOC_LANG=en_US.ISO_8859-1'' Look at the ``SUBDIR''
lines in the Makefile, the short version, ``en'', is just a symlink in
/usr/share/doc to en_US.ISO_8859-1 *after* you've done ``make
install'', i.e. in /usr/share/doc
You can also make it an environment variable in your ~/.<shell>rc file
to save you having to edit the Makefile everytime you cvsup.

They should be doc/es* doc/zh* doc/ru* etc. etc.
