The code in base.bbclass is: (no remove PACKAGECONFIG[doc])

     pkgconfigflags = d.getVarFlags("PACKAGECONFIG") or {}
     if pkgconfigflags:
        <foo>

And documentation.conf:
PACKAGECONFIG[doc] = "This variable provides a means of enabling or disabling 
features of a recipe on a per-recipe basis."

This will make "if pkgconfigflags:" always be true and cause many unneeded
loops since there is always PACKAGECONFIG[doc].

Remove PACKAGECONFIG[doc] or comment it sounds good to me.
