With Meson gaining more traction in GNOME I guess it's about time to improve gtk-doc's support for out-of-tree builds. At least people should be aware of issues like https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=776427 when porting to Meson. Out-of-tree builds are rarely tested for gtk-doc and there can be subtle breakages like missing images, code samples etc.
