 This is a bit tricky since we need sphinx and other things installed
 before we can build the docs, but sphinx and the other things depend on
 python.  To resolve this circular dependency, we try to import sphinx.  If
 we can't import sphinx, then we exit without error with a message that you
 should install sphinx and related tools first and then try building the
 docs again.  This means that in order to use the environment variable, you
 have to install the python spkg twice, since we don't have an option to
 just build docs without building python.  But maybe that's worth it for
 someone that just wants the python docs.
