take doc out of your USE

It's even worse than I thought...after installation, the SDK docs take up over
200MB of hard disk space.

IMHO, it shouldn't be the default to include SDK docs for a JRE package.

The user shouldn't have to globally disables docs to avoid getting a bunch of
SDK docs that don't relate to the JRE package.

you dont have to do it globally, thats what /etc/portage/package.use is for

but since you seem to be so hung up on this let the java team sort it out
