The param is for "cabal install" only. So don't use "cabal install".

cabal configure  # may be skipped usually
cabal build
cabal copy

If your project is a library (as opposed to an executable): add
cabal register

Why this is not controlled in project.cabal: The author of the project 
should not control whether users build docs or not.


P.S. Ivan, --enable-documentation and --disable-documentation are not 
even valid flags to "cabal configure".
