On Jessie with native packages, the result is:
andrewcoop@andrewcoop:/local/xen.git/xen$ make -C ../docs/ sphinx-html
make: Entering directory '/local/xen.git/docs'
sphinx-build -b html . sphinx/html
Running Sphinx v1.2.3
Sphinx version error:
This project needs at least Sphinx v1.4 and therefore cannot be built with this
version.
Makefile:55: recipe for target 'sphinx-html' failed
make: *** [sphinx-html] Error 1
make: Leaving directory '/local/xen.git/docs'
