As vapier said, doc useflag does not mean much in this discussion. |

FEATURES="nodoc" is less than an install mask, as it just (iirc) make dodoc |
| 8 |
commands no-ops. An INSTALL_MASK makes simpler to handle that. |

We already use the doc useflag to avoid adding dependencies only for doc |
| 10 |
building, so the similar meaning for info and man is already in use. |

Basic doc does not require any dep (as it's already built), while man and info |
| 13 |
requires the man command and texinfo, so there's a big difference. |
