Some of them do, others don't; it's optional.

The reason why the Texinfo sources don't have to be in the *d.zip
files is the same reason why the *.c sources aren't in the *b.zip
binary distributions: both *d.zip and *b.zip are for people who
_don't_want_ to mess with sources and don't want to produce the binary
and docs files from the sources.

Then download the *d.zip, extract the HTML file, and nuke the rest.

If the issue is the to have HTML docs in one file, then we could
decide that *d.zip should contain both that and the split-HTML
version.
