It looks sensible to omit docs for those modules that are not built. I've tried to do it and failed. There are at least two problems: - minor: zftpsys.yo is built as part of "main" documentation. It logically should be built together with mod_zftp. Also, several builtins that are now in modules are listed in main documentation (e.g. limit). - major: list of modules to build is created dynamically when you run make; it is impossible to build list of modules at configure time. Hence the question: is there any reason we generate module list and makefiles at compile time? Autoconf allows you to run any command(s) as part of config.status - we can as easily call mkmakemod & Co. as part of (and move current creation of config.modules into) config.status. Should make the whole story more simple. -andrej
