Docbook errors

[Randall Wood]

I think that almost all, if not all, of the docbook issues that have  
prevented other ports from building have been resolved.

The following steps should be performed for continuing problems:

1) Make sure everything is up-to-date:
	sudo port selfupdate ; sudo port upgrade outdated
2) Clean the port that failed to build:
	sudo port clean --all portname
3) Attempt to install the port while logging the results:
	sudo port -dv install portname > ~/port.log 2>&1
4) Continued failures should be logged in the Macports ticket system,  
setting the port maintainer as owner.
