After upgrading I found the lib docu to be approx. the same as I got before. In addition, I found a lot more docu to be missing. Is there anyone who really knows what the current documenting state is, and where to get the docu existing so far? It's fairly hard to believe that e.g. a lot of apparently useful libs (such as libregex) are distributed without ANY docu, making them useless therefore. So I conclude that at least part of it exists -- somewhere... Well, I know that I can retrieve part of this docu from my Linux System but 1) not everyone has Linux, 2) Switching the OS just to read a docu is a fairly tough thing...
