Correct, that's the choice of the original author as it is considered
"developer's documentation". But that is a separate discussion.

An alternative is to skip the documentation in text format when the
dependencies are missing (either lynx, links or w3m).

I have posted a patch. You can apply the libXfont patches, and then, to
minimize disruption on your system, you can copy/paste the util-macros
new code in libXfont configure.ac. Reset version number requested from
1.10 to 1.6.
