configure.ac and his neighboors are a mystery for me at the moment :)

Fully agreed.

Agreed.

I must add one thing : make clean doesn't work for now. It removes
*.tgz and others but the directories containing the old doc aren't
removed.

Neither does 'make doc'. wine-doc is moved to wine-doc.junk by jade and
that's all.

Or does it works with your patch ? Didn't have time to test it.
