Where languages have their own manuals, I think it's more appropriate for
those to go under the language-specific directories.
That doesn't stop the use of shared makefile code. Make-lang.in is a
fragment included from gcc/Makefile.in ("-include $(LANG_MAKEFRAGS)"). I
certainly expect it should be possible to write GNU make code in
gcc/Makefile.in for building and installing manuals, such that
subdirectories only need to define a few variables describing what manuals
they have and everything else is handled by common code.
