Installed, thanks!

The doc/manpages/Makefile.am file is generated (see the
update-makefile target in that file), so I had to fix the logic that
create the file.

I believe the simplest would be to move the SRP functions from
gnutls.h.in to srp.h, and include the latter in the former through a
@INCLUDE_SRP_H@ AC_SUBST which is defined to '#include <gnutls/srp.h>'
in configure.in unless --disable-srp.

Some things, like enum types like GNUTLS_CRED_SRP, would be easiest to
keep in gnutls.h.

Thanks,
