Nothing said about these sorts of things...  <sigh...>
(At least not in a language I understand...  yet... :)
There is mention in ports/textproc/docproj, but I wonder if
that is a bit "old"...

Just For Fun, I tried "make" in /usr/doc and it stopped on
lack of "eps2png."  I can't find any mention of that pgm in
ports/textproc/docproj...  Hmmm...

As I mentioned in another reply (to -doc), I think it's a
Good Idea (if you can) to bring -doc up to date from time
to time, especially if you're tracking -stable.  The
"problem" is that this is not as "spelled-out" as is
tracking -stable.
