Nothing, if you work only on one module. This is a target to take
advantage
of build.sh whereby all documentation (as defined in the comment) are
built.

In previous releases, all the docs where in xorg-docs and so they could
be built with one command.
Now, one has to make a custom script and hunt down all the places where
docs live e.g specs,
doc, doc/xml/dtrace and so one. 

With such a target on all modules, one can simply invoke build.sh --cmd
"make documents" (with
a list of modules holding documents)

That's the thought, there might be better ways to do it!

Thanks
