No, of course. Never worry about somebody else hacking a bit of CVS,
its there to help avoiding conflicts. As you may have seen in the past,
I'm one of those who lurk in the darkness and rarely write some useful
code. Go ahead, and please don't think I'm somehow responsible for
makedoc! I'm just the last one who patched it.

It's not just a subset since it also adds new commands. I believe the
best would be to turn makedoc to it's original behaviour/output, and use
the new behaviour with the switch... -new? Not very innovative, I know.

I polluted it too, but never cared if it was bad british english, bad
american english, bad spanish translated to english or whatever :-)
