Surrounding something with a conditional which evaluates true does not
change the outcome in any programming or scripting language I know.
I don't see why that should work any different in m4/autotools.

Look, if groff allowed building without docs like every other reasonable
software project does, I wouldn't have to spend several hours on this to
begin with. If you think it's not good enough, do it yourself next time
and I won't have to send you "incomplete" patches.

I am not gonna react to the rest since what I'm trying to say is clearly
flying right over your head.
