I tried to run `make -n`' in /usr/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/freebsd-releng and got the error "make: don't know how to make HTML.manifest.

Related to the `make -n' failure is `make -j1'. `make' and `make -j1' should return the same results, and not fail: make -j1 make: make: don't know how to make HTML.manifest. Stop
Apparently, this problem exists for all documents with the FORMATS=html-split HTML.manifest is generated during build, but some targets depend on it, and don't know how to generate it. The proposed fix: we add a line in share/mk/doc.docbook.mk HTML.manifest: index.html that's all.
