Is there currently any way to prevent Sage from building the docs when
one downloads a new tarball, i.e. something like setting
SAGE_ATLAS_LIB="..." to avoid building atlas every time a new beta is
released?

If not, would people support adding an environment variable to this
effect? Maybe that variable could be set to the location of online
docs for the last major release, or that variable would cause a script
to run that downloads pre-built docs (as happens with the
gentoo-prefix?)
