I forgot to specify the platform in my mail. It's Ubuntu 12.04 64bit. I
have docbook-xsl 1.76.1+dfsg-1ubuntu1. Looks like I need to update it to
1.77.1, but 12.04 doesn't support it readily, will need to force an upgrade.

Amit Langote, on other thread, said that the html docs compile even after
those errors. I didn't notice that. I thought, the docs didn't get built
because of those errors. So, probably I am good right now.
