Thanks,
I manually deleted the Makefile files from lib/doc as make distclean also failed in lib/doc with same error message.
svn update
./autogen,sh
./configure ...........
make
then worked OK

Presume Makefile.depend got corrupted somehow?

I cannot see anythin suspicious in that file, but this is the second report.
Did you try make distclean and ./autogen.sh?
