Comment:

 The patch I pushed through to disable the docs on < 10.7 does work to fix
 the build, but I'll reopen this as we should have a proper fix for the
 docs in the end.

 Here's something a bit strange. If I get to the error point above, then
 open up the permissions in the build folder like this:
 {{{
 cd `port work lirc`
 sudo chmod -R a+rw .
 }}}
 and then continue the build, it finishes properly.

 Now why would that only be an issue on < 10.7?
