This is definitely the "right thing" to do.  SGML should be the only 
thing in the source CVS yet there's no reason to require the user to 
compile SGML into HTML.  HTML isn't platform dependent or anything :)  
Adding a few "magic" tricks to the dist rule in Makefile.in (or the 
configuration for automake) should make this an easy situation to handle.
