Hi,

it was my bad, caused by me tweaking the Makefiles. I will be posting the last version of my separate builddir patch separately, with support for the documentation as well. Can you have a look so I know whether it's worth investing any more time in?

Unfortunately, asciidoc doesn't seem to support a --include-path option or similar, so I can't get the documentation support to work completely.
