RHEL's rpmbuild wipes the docdir for a (sub-)package if any %doc

This means we can't prepopulate this directory with the HTML
documentation during the %install phase.
Instead, move the HTML documentation to a temporary directory during
%install and mark the contents of this temporary directory with %doc.
Huh, AFAICT, this has worked fine for years. What actual problem are
you seeing without this patch ? Do you have the 'redhat-rpm-config'
package installed ?
Yes, I do.
Here's the relevant bits from my Mock log:

I think the problem was introduced with commit e23216da, and that it's
only because the %doc directive now contains relative paths. Before then
the only %doc directives in that subpackage were absolute paths. RHEL 6's
rpmbuild at least seems to handle those differently, and it doesn't
generate an "rm -rf" line if only absolute paths are present.
