I'm not sure about the use case here. For some reason you want to
install some of the man pages, but not all of them?

I would say that --without-docs should imply --without-api-docs

I'm not totally convinced about the change in the description, but I
guess we can always change it back if / when we start install other
kinds of docs (e.g. html docs or info pages).
