I'll try to fix it (it worked time ago if I good remember). Frankly,
the way how is gtk-doc designed to work with autotools sucks...

BTW, our TODO:

* use something better than gtk-doc for libmount and libblkid (doxyden?)

;-)

docs is pretty small and for mainstream distros is the dependence on
gtk-doc no issue.
