I just tried this on OS X 10.9.5 running MacPorts 2.3.3 and a ports tree
as of a few minutes ago. The command

After uninstalling docbook, opensp and openjade, re-installing them with

sudo port install docbook-dsssl docbook-sgml-4.2 docbook-xml-4.2 docbook-xsl
libxslt openjade opensp

completed without a hitch. It even logged

---> Computing dependencies for openjade
---> Dependencies to be installed: opensp

BTW, why does the list of suggested packages include docbook-xml? I was
under the impression that postgres used only the SGML version of docbook.
And I previously only has the SGML version installed, and I'm pretty sure
that I was able to build the documentation successfully.
