Recently I've been unable to build the documentation intermittently,
and I think it's because sourceforge.net has become flakey. Let me
try right now...
$ make docs XSLTPROC=/usr/bin/xsltproc
...blah blah blah...
warning: failed to load external entity
"http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/xhtml/chunk.xsl"
...blah blah blah...
So, yeah, it looks like we might need a local docbooks installation currently.

I think we should complain to the MacPorts packager about the
namespace vs non-namespace stuff being possibly confused in the
packages.
