 [Moving discussion of this issue from TT #1922, comment 7]

 When you configure with a `--prefix` directory, then build and proceed to
 install documentation ...
 {{{
 perl Configure.pl --prefix=/path/to/parrot
 make
 make install-doc
 }}}
 ... you will get documentation installed under
 {{{
 /path/to/parrot/share/doc/
 }}}
 So far so good.

 If you then call `make docs`, you generate documentation for about 14
 files.  But this documentation is placed under your build directory, not
 under your install directory:
 {{{
 ./docs/doc-prep
 ./docs/ops/bit.pod
 ./docs/ops/cmp.pod
 ./docs/ops/core.pod
 ./docs/ops/experimental.pod
 ./docs/ops/io.pod
 ./docs/ops/math.pod
 ./docs/ops/object.pod
 ./docs/ops/pmc.pod
 ./docs/ops/set.pod
 ./docs/ops/string.pod
 ./docs/ops/sys.pod
 ./docs/ops/var.pod
 ./docs/packfile-c.pod
 }}}
 Is this what we expect?  Is anyone familiar with the history of `make
 docs` enough to venture an opinion?

 Thank you very much.
