It worked with that reverted.  I went back to the master branch and
it worked there, too, on a retry.  Could a transient failure to
communicate with the referenced URL on the Internet:
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/docbook.xsl
have caused this failure?  I don't know for sure that there was a
failure, but that's what the message seemed to say.  I *can* access
that page with my browser at the moment.
Is the build contingent on Internet access?  Should it be?
