My asciidoc version is 8.4.1. Yes "make ASCIIDOC8=yes" seems to have built with
out any problems. Thanks for quick-install-man tip, I should have read till the
end of INSTALL document  :) .

People would start using latest versions of ascii doc which has no problems,
wouldn't it be better if the default compile options suit them ? Also, it would
be good if "make install man", would do "quick-install-man" as default to
prevent users from the painful compilation of manpages everytime they try to
install latest git.
