With thanks to Jack O'Neill, this is now done.  They're only in -current 
at the moment, but they should backport to -stable fairly easily.  I'd
be obliged if those if you who like to do these things grabbed a copy
of -current that has r1.504 of src/release/Makefile, and tried building
a release with that, and a copy of the doc/ tree that's of a similar
vintage.  Everything should pretty much work.

Brickbats should be sent my way if it doesn't.
