Why use tidy then?  Seems like the only reason to make the html files
human-readable (the docbook sgml -> html results are pretty horrible
to look at) would be to edit them.

I tried building the docs without using tidy
  (remove dok-tidy from the GNUmakefile 'dok: dok-release dok-devel ...' line)
and I don't see any problems.  The html source looks like crap but it
looks OK when displayed in firefox
