Yes, that's now doable, and looks like a better naming convention.

GForth versions: 0.7.3, GIT head (didn't try older ones)
Host: Cygwin 32bit

"make doc" fails to build doc/gforth.dvi.

That happens because the script texi2dvi4a2ps (of a2ps 4.14, script taken from Texinfo 4.1) fails, as it sees "doc/gforth.ds" and believes it to be a texinfo index file, which it isn't.

The most obvious fix would be to rename the file to something like doc/gforth.texi.in. That would have been a Very Bad Idea while you were still using CVS, but it appears feasible in git.
