>Description:
	The example cvsup file for docs defaults to putting stuff in /usr/doc. Surely it should be
	/usr/share/doc?
>How-To-Repeat:
	1) Don't read the comment about the default prefix in /usr/share/examples/cvsup/doc-supfile
	2) cvsup your docs tree off the example supfile
	3) Get really confused because nothing in /usr/share/docs has been touched
