Looking at my build.log, at the end of the compile phase are a few lines where the package tries to make the man documentation from a manual.xml file. It doesn't fail in the compile phase, strangely, because XMLTO is set to ":" (just a colon) in the Makefile[1], and apparently ": is a shell builtin that is basically equivalent to the true command". It fails later in the install phase when it fails to find the expected man files. Emerging app-text/xmlto (adding it to the DEPEND section) fixed the issue. (app-text/xmlto doesn't require the "text" USE flag here.) (The configure stage did check for xmlto, and didn't find it, but continued anyways.)
