I'd prefer not. The people that know they need to build all the docs
in all formats are also aware of the options and can pass --with-fop
to all modules. That has the added advantage that configure would
error if they didn't have the correct components instead of silently
continuing. On the other hand, random builders who happen to have fop
installed will have their build time massively increased for a benefit
they probably don't want anyway. Honestly, unless you're building
specifically to create documentation, why would you want pdfs of all
the compose charts?

If people want this, no big deal, but can you at least post a
difference building --with-fop and --without-fop? I have old fop on my
system and it's failing to build.
