Hi Guys,
some of you may have noticed that I have an aversion to gtk-doc (I'm
getting over it). This was triggered by occasional uses of
autoreconf now needing gtkdocize. That first hit me in polkit with
the patch for elogind, but my memory suggested that the patch has in
the past been added or rolled forward a little after updates to
polkit.
From reading the patch that introduced gtkdocize in autoconf [1],
it appears that gtkdocize is not called if the -i (--install) flags is
not passed. That flag is not needed for polkit. We might want to check
whether it is really needed for the other packages that use autoreconf.

Interesting, but I'm not sure I can check that throughout - I've
checked plain "does autoreconf work to produce a configure script"
on several packages where I lack the dependencies to actually build
them.
Just checking all packages, the following are present:
networking/netprogs/cifsutils.xml: autoreconf -fiv
networking/netlibs/libnsl.xml: autoreconf -fi
x/lib/clutter.xml: autoreconf -f -i
x/lib/cairo.xml: autoreconf -fiv
postlfs/filesystems/reiser.xml: autoreconf -fiv
postlfs/security/volume_key.xml: autoreconf -fiv
postlfs/security/polkit.xml: autoreconf -fi
postlfs/security/tripwire.xml: autoreconf -fi
multimedia/libdriv/libmad.xml: autoreconf -fi
general/graphlib/sassc.xml: autoreconf -fi
general/graphlib/libraw.xml: autoreconf -fiv
general/genlib/telepathy-glib.xml: autoreconf -fiv
general/genlib/libunique.xml: autoreconf -fi
general/genlib/libgrss.xml: autoreconf -fiv
general/genlib/exempi.xml: autoreconf -fiv
general/genlib/libpaper.xml: autoreconf -fi
general/genutils/gtk-doc.xml: autoreconf -fiv
pst/sgml/sgml-common.xml: autoreconf -f -i
xsoft/other/tigervnc.xml: autoreconf -fiv
I didn't check the individual pages, but perhaps they all should use
-fv. We would need to do a test build at least though make to ensure
the instructions still work.
