It's good that you were worried about this.

Actually the contents of docs/html/ex and ex are not completely
duplicated.  So I should have just de-duped based on the original
author's files in both directories.  My code is wrong to begin with.
:-(

So following the guidelines, I am now just copying both directories in
%install and then de-duping, with a symlink, any files that are
duplicated, making %{_datadir}/ex the actual files and installing
symlinks over any duplicated files in %{_docdir}/html/ex.

After this change, both directories contain exactly what the original
author intended.
