Thanks for the patch! I've gone ahead and included it in the latest git since it should make a standard build a little simpler. I do note that for any patched builds where the yodl (.yo) doc files got changed that there is still a perl dependency when running the tweak_manpage script on the yodl2man output. That would be a much rarer build, though (since the release tars contain the default .1 and .5 output files).
