Thank you.  Your Makefile is much less confusing than the one that comes
with Python!  It also points out a shortcoming of the RPM packaging.  The
python2-devel package includes everything you need to compile python
extension modules, but does not include what is needed to "compile"
python documentation!  Are third party module writers not supposed to
document anything? :-) It looks like I'll have to download the Python
sources and create my own RPMs.

Presumably, I do not need *everything* in the Doc directory to compile my
own docs.  Probably just the tools directory, and maybe texinputs and
templates.  Is the list of what is needed for 3rd party docs documented
somewhere?  I can create a python2-doc rpm for it.
