I didn't follow all the changes from before minimakefile, but at least
some targets have always built the documentation before running the
tests.
This can be fixed by removing doc from some or all of these functions:
grep -B3 '[^a-z]doc[^a-z]' tools/test-*
Or maybe by tweaking the doc to not fail, or to detect the existence
of texi2pdf, etc.
Or worked around by calling directly the targets that you want beside doc.
