Subject:   www/tidy core dumps when building doc during "make release"

The tidy program has an undocumented feature.  It looks for a
configuration file "~/.tidyrc" on startup, unless the environment
variable HTML_TIDY is set.  In the "make release" environment, the HOME
environment variable is not set, which causes tidy to core dump when it
tries to expand "~/.tidyrc" to a full path name.

I think the best fix would be to change the invokation of tidy from
"${PREFIX}/bin/tidy" to "HTML_TIDY=/dev/null ${PREFIX}/bin/tidy" in
doc.docbook.mk and doc.html.mk.  This will also give consistent results
between users who might happen to have .tidyrc files.
