In Debian we have:

% the default extensions for documentation
TEXDOCSSUFFIX = .pdf:.dvi:.ps:.txt
% we allow some compression methods
TEXDOCSCOMPRESS = :.gz:.bz2
% put html at the very end, to avoid showing the Catalogue:
TEXDOCHTML = .html
% and put that all now together
TEXDOCEXT =
{$TEXDOCSSUFFIX}{$TEXDOCSCOMPRESS}:{$TEXDOCHTML}{$TEXDOCSCOMPRESS}

but this is really specific to Debian.
