On my system libXfont 1.4.2 fails attempting to build doc/fontlib.txt.  This 
happens because xmlto needs Lynx or similar to do this.

I would claim that Lynx should not be a required build dependency for libXfont, 
in this day and age when most people are able to read doc/fontlib.html and 
moreover it appears none of what is generated is installed anywhere.

I suggest the following patch to discontinue generating the .txt version 
entirely.
