Alternatively, could we use (@ (guix self) translate-texi-manuals) as it
existed in Guix commit 5f86eebd240958001ab4f178005f355d24d9b7f1 by
simply copying it to ‘doc/build.scm’ on the ‘version-1.4.0’ branch?

That seems simpler and more orthogonal to me than special-casing
(sysadmin web).

Patch below.

WDYT?

PS: I’ll be away from keyboard in the coming days so feel free to push
    to ‘version-1.4.0’ if it looks good to you.
