These problems are sadly occurring on several problems, including NetBSD, OpenBSD and cygwin. Unfortunately the doc tools don't give much away in the way of error messages.
It may be a prudent idea to split the doc files off from the actual build. After all, they are supposed to be platform-independent, so why not provide a package of ready-made documentation files, which I would hazard a guess don't change too often anyway. It doesn't make sense to rebuild them every time, especially since that seems to be the single most frequent reason for build-breakage.
