Well from my current POV (moving to another host) at least, these ones *do*
build correctly.

Does some of you succed in building it ?
After adjusting hardcoded path no longer valid since potato.. I've come
up with:
jade -t sgml -V FHS \
-d ../html.dsl \
/usr/share/sgml/declaration/xml.dcl howto.db
jade:/usr/share/sgml/declaration/xml.dcl:31:27:W: characters in the document
character set with numbers exceeding 65535 not supported
jade:howto.db:1:0:E: end of document in prolog
But honestly, I don't want to spent more time trying to build an outdated doc.
So, different options:
A/ Can someone want to fix the sgml-howto svn to make it buildable on lenny and
squeeze ?
B/ sync the manual built result to new www-master (I'm not a big fan, but it's
the most conservative option). Then if someone wants, update the build system.
C/ Drop it
