0014371: bootstrapping with --docdir puts documentation in wron directory
When bootstrapping the source distribution with

    ./bootstrap --docdir=share/doc/cmake-2.8.11.2

the documentation gets installed in

    /usr/local/hare/doc/cmake-2.8.11.2

I expected the documentation to be installed in

    /usr/local/share/doc/cmake-2.8.11.2
wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.11.2.tar.gz [^]
tar xzf cmake-2.8.11.2.tar.gz
cd cmake-2.8.11.2
./bootstrap --docdir=/share/doc/cmake-2.8.11.2
make
make install

Sorry, I messed up the "Steps To Reproduce". The error happens when I do

  ./bootstrap --docdir=share/doc/cmake-2.8.11.2

The command

  ./bootstrap --docdir=/share/doc/cmake-2.8.11.2

was my way to work around this error

This motivates a long, long overdue cleanup:
