any reason we couldn't in principle have a separate git tree on

MH (and by descent nmh) is by definition a command line tool.  It assumes a 
command line help system, in the form of the man(1) command.  If you are 
installing nmh on a host, you need to install a working man(1).  Think of it as 
a core dependency.

As David mentioned, splitting the documentation out from the code is a recipe 
for disaster.  It's not going to happen.
