John,

The wiki page (http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Documentation_Update_Instructions 
<http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Documentation_Update_Instructions>) gives 
different commands than these. Specifically, the commands for the docs are 
listed there as:

cd docs/guide/C
xmllint --valid --noout gnucash-guide.xml
xsltproc -o ../../../output_html/ ../../xsl/general-customization.xsl 
gnucash-guide.xml
cd docs/help/C
xmllint --valid --noout gnucash-help.xml
xsltproc -o ../../../output_html/ ../../xsl/general-customization.xsl 
gnucash-help.xml

Perhaps you were crossing up the application compilation with the docs 
compilation?

David
