Ah, even easier ... stupid question, but the snapshot is still using the
7.4 docs ... is there a 'gmake' I should be using to build man.tar.gz,
like I do with postgres?

Based on the above, though, here are the steps for building the snapshot
that should be followed ... please confirm ...

/usr/bin/cvs -d /cvsroot -q export -rHEAD pgsql
cd pgsql
./configure
cd doc/src
gmake postgres.tar.gz
mv postgres.tar.gz ..
cp ~ftp/pub/dev/doc/postgres.tar.gz ~ftp/pub/dev/doc/man-7.4.tar.gz ../doc
cd sgml
gmake HISTORY INSTALL
cp HISTORY INSTALL ../../..
cd ../../..
gmake split-dist=yes VERSION=snapshot dist
gmake maintainer-clean
