Sorry - I hit send too fast on the previous mail. The relevant build lines are:

GIT_INDEX_FILE=`pwd`/.quick-doc.index export GIT_INDEX_FILE rm -f "$GIT_INDEX_FILE" git read-tree $head git checkout-index -a -f --prefix="$mandir"/

After this commit, git checkout-index does not write the man files into $mandir, before this commit, it does.
