Ok, what about
touch Documentation/notation.tely
make out=www Documentation/out-www/notation.pdf
The problem with the docs failing to rebuild when you edit one of
the included is well-known, and is almost certainly another of
these one-line fixes to the build system that requires 3 hours to
write. :(

Yes, it builds html instead.
*shrug*
I personally prefer to view docs in html, but I have no problem
with people wanting pdf instead. I'm still a bit hesitant about
adding a script that duplicates existing functionality in the
build system, but OTOH it's not like we're short of disk space or
anything.
