But at any rate, I think I've found a solution that works for me
and certainly don't intend to ask GNU to rework autotools for my
sole benefit? :-) Thanks, all!
Eric suggest the truly right fix though. :-)

Easier than having "--disable-installdocs" or the equivalent? I
don't personally think so.
You need to add --disable-installdocs to _all_ packages that use
autoconf, this is non-trivial.

Can (should) SUBDIRS contain conditionals? Is automake smart to know
that MAYBEDOCS must be entered not for install but

And thereby remove installed documentation for hundreds of other,
unrelated packages?

Under certain circumstances, users don't want to install *any*
documentation files from my project.
I'm not sure what those conditions are, or why it is a good idea to
make live hard for users; but isn't it easier to just do `rm -rf
/usr/share/doc /usr/share/man' after `make install'?
Under certain circumstances, users don't want to install *any*
documentation files from my project.
From the example in the info page for automake, I added this to
configure.ac:
AC_ARG_ENABLE([installdocs],
[ --enable-installdocsinstall documentation],
[case "${enableval}" in
yes) installd
