Dear Sirs,

I think there is a bug in the doc/Makefile.in file.

The line

      if test ! -d html/index.html; then \

should be

      if test ! -f html/index.html; then \


The -d flag tests whether html/index.html exists and is a directory.
It isn't, so the next line echos  "empty" into  html/index.html,
which destroys it.

The -f flag tests whether html/index.html exists and is a file,
which is what it is and should be.

Sincerely,

William Wheeler, Mathematics Faculty, Indiana University, Bloomington
