Don't do that unless you're using configure for git usually. I don't
think Francis is, he's setting make variables.
I won't, I just call make with some variables set.

Fix the most obvious possible problems first before seeking

I really hope you don't have any filesystem errors. May be worth
checking before attempting to reinstall the docbook-dtds package.
In any case, you are apparently missing the docbook XML 4.5 DTD/XSL
files (from your local cache). It automagically fails over to trying to
fetch them over the internet (which I've noted doesn't work very well).
