Bug Description

Trying to rebuild documentation to test changes and can't `make clean-sphinx`.

Turns out the doc/??/Makefile 's are deduplicated by being copied from doc/en/Makefile--but only when you are building the documentation. So the clean rule doesn't work on a fresh install before you build documentation.

The fix is not hard: the clean-sphinx rule simply needs to list the Makefiles it wants to use as dependencies.

Getting warning about circular dependency from doc/en/Makefile and doc/en/make.bat
The fix is to replace wildcard in rule targets (doc/%/Makefile, doc/%/make.bat) with a list made from doc/* directories excluding doc/en.

Or may be have a better look at which targets we really care about in those makefiles (I'd bet we care about a small minority), get rid of the cruft and fixes will become way easier.

But, meh, you do the work so you decide how to do it ;)
