Also support building on systems without perl and when cross-compiling.
* configure.ac (AC_ARG_ENABLE [bold-man-page-references]): New
configure-time option, using code copied from coreutils.
(BUILD_MAN_PAGE, BUILD_DUMMY_MAN_PAGE): Remove definitions.
(HAVE_PERL): Remove bogus conditional.
* doc/dummy-man: New file, from coreutils, with slight adapation.
* build-aux/help2man: Update from coreutils.
* doc/local.mk (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute dummy-man.
(run_help2man): New variable.
(doc/sed.1): Use it rather than simply invoking help2man.
Simplify to use only one copy of this rule, now that run_help2man
works both with and without perl and when cross-compiling.
Move the --name=... string argument into...
* doc/sed.x: ... here. Also make the "Synopsis" appear in generated file.
In https://lists.gnu.org/r/sed-devel/2022-10/msg00005.html,
Bruno Haible reported build failure with perl in a different
location and (in another report) another failure with no perl at all.
