That's a ridiculous assertion.  Not _enough_ documentation, certainly.
"absolutely no documentation?"  Ziehe leine!

There's release notes, a README, a step-by-step installation guide
(which I went to great trouble to write) and a large collection of
docs in /usr/share/FAQ.  In that collection are, among many other things,
full instructions on building kernels.

RTFM!
