 Right now I have problem with building doc my local mac which fails this
 error


 {{{
 grep -v '&postgis_special;' postgis.xml > postgis-nospecial.xml.in
 /usr/local/bin/xmllint --path
 .:/Users/lop/dev/pg_build_from_source/postgis/doc --noent -o postgis-
 nospecial.xml postgis-nospecial.xml.in dyld[56362]: Symbol not found:
 _xmlCtxtSetMaxAmplification Referenced from: <67ABBA84-EFD3-3806-86AE-

 AF03-B5328CAD1FD6> /usr/lib/libxml2.2.dylib make[1]: *** [postgis-
 nospecial.xml] Abort trap: 6 make: *** [all] Error 1

 }}}

 But when testing this now I do not need the doc so @strk told that could
 set CAN_BUILD_COMMENTS to empty to avoid build comments/doc.

 But maybe we could have a flag to be used like this
 {{{
 ./configure  --without-comments
 }}}
  ?
