But the issue here is about what happens when you don't have a local
copy of the DTD.  I don't think adjusting those variables will
change that.

Anyway, I think that the other thread is coming to the conclusion
that it's okay to just document how to inject --nonet via configure,
so we don't need to touch the makefiles.  As long as we get rid of
the unrequested network fetch during configure, it's okay by me if an
actual attempt to build the docs will possibly cause a network fetch.
