I was thinking (guix build utils).  Of course, one could introduce a
new module, but doing that would come with even more downsides in terms
of UX (or PX if we're pedantic).

Looking at this patch, perhaps we'd also have to allow customizing
command line options.  Also, as for installing, I think this should be
handled by the install phase, which already has includes
"^[^/]*\\.info$" and "^doc/.*\\.info$" by default.  Thus, you only need
to build documentation before the install phase.
