The top level makefile shouldn't know about what is in subdirectories.

I think I know why you did it this way: bsd.info.mk only works in a
directory full of .texi[nfo] files, so you had to move the ptx texinfo
files to ptx/doc; bsd.subdir.mk only works in a directory full of
directories so to use it you would have to move the source files to
a subdirectory too; however there is already too much moving and
changing the top level makefile is easier.

Fixing bsd.info.mk now would save time later.
