No it's not automatic. Indeed the po-doc/Makefile.am helps to create
the xml files, but if they aren't committed within the tree, the
documentation won't be installed. For that purpose, the
configure.ac.in script and $docdir/Makefile.am have to be modified.

But that is the current state, it is subject to change sooner or later.
