AIUI - we don't mind that tools are BSD, GPL, or otherwise freely licensed as long as the results are covered exclusively under the Apache License. The results of the build always concern us - e.g. we won't bind to GPL libraries that cause Apache to become encumbered under the GPL. If we didn't use GNU tools who's results were freely licensable we wouldn't be building under gcc, for example :-) We have many such tools installed on those servers, and respect their license. The only question is, does the tools' license encumber the resulting man pages generated by DocBook. It's not our job to distribute every tool. If DocBook isn't found, our build system should simply not try building man/.
