Does not work for out-of-tree builds.

Where is the doc output supposed to be: in the source tree, or in the
build dir? If the later, I tested the above doesn't work. If the former,
it'd be weird to have generated files in the source tree. Especially
if it is shared by more than one build instannce...

Don't remove the logo, it is needed later for viewing the HTML doc.
But see below...

I find the copy-then-remove a little bit uggly. Maybe somthing along the
lines of (Makefile totally untested, asciidoc commands manually tested):

---8<---
MANUAL_SOURCES = $(wildcard docs/manual/*.txt)

$(O)/docs/manual/logo.png: docs/images/logo.png
	$(Q)mkdir -p $(@D)
	$(Q)cp $< $@

manual: manual-html manual-splitted-html [...]

manual-%: $(MANUAL_SOURCES) $(O)/docs/manual/logo.png

manual-html: 
	@echo "HTML manual..."
	$(Q)asciidoc -b xhtml11 -d book docs/manual/manual.txt \
	             -o $(O)/docs/manual/manual.html

manual-splitted-html:
	@echo "Splited HTML manual..."
	$(Q)a2x -f chunked -d book -L docs/manual/manual.txt \
	        -r docs/images                               \
	        -D $(O)/docs/manual
# And so on...
