Okay, I see: this code is using docdir = empty to represent
--without-docdir, so we have to maintain that state in Makefile.global.
Got it now.  But I wonder how much Peter could have tested
--without-docdir when he added it recently, because AFAICS it could
not have worked at all.  The code to add /postgresql to docdir has
been there right along.

Hmph.  Works for me.  Possibly a compiler-specific issue?
