Other idea:
do a 'make package' outside the chroot for all required doc ports and
move those into the chroot. Still not too elegant though..
Or build the docs outside the chroot and move 'm in after they are
generated :-P
Seriously: there is really a ton of ports required to generate all the
different incarnations of the docs. Quite horrible in a sense..

OK, I'll give that a try. I thought I had NODOCS in the buildscript
but apparantly not.

Can somebody please verify if it works on their Alpha (or x86 for
that matter) to build gd?
