Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-8916:
----------------------------------------
the two docs targets are nominally conditional on the {{if=forrest.home}}
check, but as they have explicit dependency on the {{forrest.check}} target,
that guard is moot -the build fails before it gets that far.
> make it possible to build hadoop tarballs without java5+ forrest
> ----------------------------------------------------------------

> Although you can build hadoop binaries without java5 & Forrest, you can't do
> the tarballs as {{tar}} depends on {{packaged}}, which depends on the
> {{docs}} and {{cn-docs}}, which both depend on the forrest/java5 checks.
