Better now:

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/git/linux/tools/lib/traceevent'
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/git/linux/tools/perf/Documentation'
make[2]: warning: jobserver unavailable: using -j1.  Add `+' to parent
make rule.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/git/linux/tools/lib/traceevent'
    CC /home/acme/git/build/perf/perf.o
    LINK /home/acme/git/build/perf/perf
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/git/linux/tools/perf'
make[2]: `/home/acme/git/build/perf/PERF-VERSION-FILE' is up to date.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/git/linux/tools/perf'
Makefile:177: *** asciidoc not found, please install it on your distro.
Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/git/linux/tools/perf/Documentation'
make: *** [install-man] Error 2
make: Leaving directory `/home/git/linux/tools/perf'
[acme@...dy linux]$ 

But it shouldn't stop the build, just warn the user that Documentation
is not going to be installed. It should error like that if 'make
install-man' is called.

Trying to do that now.
