When used with init systems such as systemd (where PID files are
redundant) this allows us to disable PID files even if a path is
configured for them in the normal bus configuration files.
Make use of this new switch in the systemd unit file.

man2html expects to find its input on stdin, so just passing the
filename will cause it to hang waiting for input.
[man2html 1.6g as shipped in Debian seems to be fine with files on the
command line, but apparently other versions aren't? -smcv]

In practice, it never works, because the activation helper doesn't
respect environment variables for security reasons.
If you want to vary the search path, alter system.conf instead, to
replace or augment <standard_system_servicedirs/> with your preferred
search path.

Someone seems to have merged part of master into 1.4. Again. Let's go
back to the "last known good" point (the branch-point of some 1.4
branches I had locally), then we can cherry-pick the changes that
should have gone in.
The STATIC_DOCS, DTDS and all dist_ files except XMLTO_OUTPUT are in the
source tree. The XMLTO_OUTPUT and the man2html output are in the build
tree, and the BONUS_FILES already have $(srcdir) in their names.
Also change the rules that generate the dbus-docs directory so that if
they fail, they leave behind a temporary directory, rather than leaving
behind a dbus-docs directory that causes make to not run those rules
if re-run; and change the rules to scp files to the server, to put a
trailing "/" on paths, ensuring that the tarball won't be uploaded as
"www" if the www directory doesn't already exist.

diagram.png and diagram.svg are linked from dbus-tutorial.html but recent
changes to doc/Makefile.am mean that if htmldir is set with configure they are
installed such that the relative link from dbus-tutorial.html does not work.

I believe that the wording of the spec has always allowed unicast signals,
but most bindings assume that signals are broadcasts, so it seems worth
saying specifically that this feature exists and can be useful.

The spec previously claimed that only messages matching the client's
match rules would be received. This is not actually true: messages
listing a client as their DESTINATION are always delivered (security
policy permitting).

In a man page, "-" officially means a typographical (Unicode) hyphen,
which frequently breaks the ability to copy and paste code examples from
a man page. "\-" means the ASCII hyphen/minus character. See
<http://lintian.debian.org/tags/hyphen-used-as-minus-sign.html> for
more details.
Rather than trying to distinguish between hyphens, em-dashes and
hyphen/minus, I just replaced all ambiguous hyphens with \- by applying
this vim command repeatedly until it didn't find anything:
%s/\(^\|[^\\]\)-/\1\\-/g

Also rename HTML_FILES to XMLTO_OUTPUT, as a more self-describing name:

I'm deliberately using a hypothetical API from example.com, rather
than a real API, to avoid perpetuating these over-simplifications any
further than they've spread already:
- "namespaces start with org.freedesktop"
- "namespaces start with org"
- "interfaces are defined by their sole implementation"
- "services have one object implementing one interface"
- "interfaces always behave like classes"
- "interfaces are always noun phrases"
- "there is a freedesktop.org D-Bus API for screensavers"
It turns out that rsync --chmod means "pretend the source files had
already had this chmod operation applied to them", and not "chmod the
destination files" like you'd expect.
As a result, the -p (--perms) option is also needed, so that rsync will
"preserve" the modified permissions. Otherwise, the docs will not be
group-writeable as intended, and only the person who made the previous
upload will be able to upload them next time.
