>Description:
When installing py-mx-base and analyzing internal changes to the package I noticed that the package installs several PDF files that aren't necessarily required for runtime execution of the package, and quite frankly aren't installed in appropriate directories:

# pkg info -l py27-mx-base | grep -i Doc | less
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mx/BeeBase/Doc/mxBeeBase.pdf
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mx/DateTime/Doc/mxDateTime.pdf
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mx/Proxy/Doc/mxProxy.pdf
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mx/Queue/Doc/mxQueue.pdf
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mx/Stack/Doc/mxStack.pdf
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mx/TextTools/Doc/mxTextTools.pdf
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mx/Tools/Doc/mxTools.pdf
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mx/UID/Doc/mxUID.pdf
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mx/URL/Doc/mxURL.pdf

These files should be installed to ${DOCSDIR}, and should not be installed if the DOCS option is unset.
>How-To-Repeat:
echo "mx-base_UNSET+= DOCS" >> /etc/make.conf
cd /usr/ports/lang/py-mx-base; make install
pkg info -l py27-mx-base | grep -i Doc && echo "Does not honor DOCS properly"
