Was just trying to recreate my docs from CVS, using the same tools
I've been using for months, and got the following:

gmake -C sgml clean
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/home/ler/pg-dev/pgsql/doc/src/sgml'
rm -f catalog
rm -f HTML.manifest *.html
rm -rf *.1 *.l man1 manl manpage.refs manpage.links manpage.log
rm -f *.rtf *.tex *.dvi *.aux *.log *.ps *.pdf
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ler/pg-dev/pgsql/doc/src/sgml'
gmake -C sgml programmer.html
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/home/ler/pg-dev/pgsql/doc/src/sgml'
(echo "PUBLIC \"-//Norman Walsh//DOCUMENT DocBook HTML

echo "PUBLIC \"-//Norman Walsh//DOCUMENT DocBook Print

jade  -D . -D ./ref -D ./../graphics -d stylesheet.dsl -i output-html
-t sgml book-decl.sgml programmer.sgml
ln -sf programmer.html index.html
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ler/pg-dev/pgsql/doc/src/sgml'
cd sgml && tar -cf ../programmer.tar --exclude=Makefile
--exclude='*.sgml' --exclude=ref *.html -C `cd . && pwd`/graphics
catalogs.gif connections.gif
tar: can't add file catalogs.gif : No such file or directory
tar: can't add file connections.gif : No such file or directory
gmake: *** [programmer.tar] Error 1
gmake: *** Deleting file `programmer.tar'
$ 

this was after making a graphics directory.

Did someone forget to add some files to CVS?

Kinda looks like Ian broke the compile-in-source-dir case while
making the compile-in-separate-dir case work.  Tut tut.
