I just committed two new build phases to =E2=80=98core-updates=E2=80=99:

  =E2=80=A2 The =E2=80=98validate-documentation-location=E2=80=99 phase ren=
ames, if needed,
    =E2=80=98man=E2=80=99 to =E2=80=98share/man=E2=80=99 and =E2=80=98info=
=E2=80=99 to =E2=80=98share/info=E2=80=99.

  =E2=80=A2 The =E2=80=98compress-documentation=E2=80=99 phase compresses m=
an pages and Info
    files with gzip, as per
    <https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html> (the nice
    thing being that we can implement the policy instead of just writing
    it down.  ;-))

As an example, the =E2=80=98share/info=E2=80=99 directory in libc is down f=
rom 4.3 MiB
to 1 MiB.

Hydra is building it now, we=E2=80=99ll see if it needs more tweaking.

As usual, comments welcome!
