Yep, me too

Same here with old 0.99_beta7 and the new 0.99_beta11 now.

Both compile and install fine with USE="-doc".

Bug is fixed in beta11 for me.

Not for me, it still see it with beta11:

Looking into the Makefile from the docs shows the following lines:
        test -z "$(man1dir)" || $(MKDIR_P) "$(DESTDIR)$(man1dir)"
        test -z "$(htmldocdir)" || $(MKDIR_P) "$(DESTDIR)$(htmldocdir)"
        test -z "$(pdfdocdir)" || $(MKDIR_P) "$(DESTDIR)$(pdfdocdir)"
But also the following one:
        $(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(datadir)/doc/libcucul-dev/html

If you compile with -j1 then the rule 'install-data-local' will run first and
create the directory with mkinstalldirs, the later rule install-htmldocDATA
will skip the create because of the -p implied in MKDIR_P.
If you compile with -j2 the install-htmldocDATA rule seems to be quicker and
create the directory itself causing the later mkinstalldirs to fail with above
error message.

Quick fix: use -j1 to emerge this package

Fixed in cvs, thanks for reporting.
