This appears to be a cygport bug (although I should have seen it
before uploading the package).

Cygport claims in the README that cygconf should call configure with
--docdir=/usr/share/doc/${P} for autoconf 2.60 configure scripts. I
assume the intention is there to support 2.6x too; but it doesn't
work.

I've attached a patch that fixes it with the magic of wildcards;
although relying on side-effect undocumented insertions into configure
scripts isn't robust at all IMO.
