Ah, this is an excellent place to start, IMO.  Somehow I missed that
patch.

I have inverted the sense of your test, though, to default
--enable-doc to no.  Those that want doc will need to add the option,
as opposed to those that don't want the doc; I hope that change in the
behaviour is agreeable.  The man page, by default, is still installed.
I've attached a modified version of your patch - please take a look
and let me know what you think.

I still like the idea of a single doc using mdoc source and then using
a tool to generate a more portable document format from that.  But I
think this at least allows folks who don't have the doc tools to build
avrdude to produce a working program.
