In the latter sense.  --enable-* typically controls a feature that Mutt
can provide.  --with-* is used to control other software which Mutt
might make use of (e.g.  openssl, qdbm).  This is typicaly of software
which uses autoconf.

I'm unsure why you get that result since there are many references to
docbook in the doc/ subdirectory.

The problem is not the cp, but the fact that the documentation failed to
build.  The 'stat' error is saying the source file does not exist.
