I used to remove the "--disable-docs" in the ./configure parameters.

Not really...  At least it's not the case with octave.  It used to take
more than one hour (on my Intel Core i5 430M); with "make -j4" it's
faster, but the CPU temperature shows 100 degrees Celsius.

asking if we can build a docs package in [extra].
