  Normally, additional dependencies would come with the version history
  for the package manifest, but that history is split between the
  importer manifests in the pkg gate and ON.

  $ hg locate SUNWdoc # no changes in text/doctools since the rename
  00/common/SUNWdoc
  110/common/SUNWdoc
  $ hg log 110/common/SUNWdoc
  ...

          162 Need to ship motif libraries
          6212 SUNWless package is missing in zones which prevents man from
          6215 dladm(1M) doesn't mention create-vnic subcommand
          ...

  So

  http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=6212

  is the cause for the dependency.  I see

  http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=12583

  may require additional dependencies for text/doctools.
