This however makes the process somewhat obscure during authoring however...

What I found so far:

For thread there is an entity.xml file which is beeing used for "short 
hand" citations too. I just tried to check by hand for missing ones. 
Nope :-(
Is it possible that I do not get the errors, since I am trying the build 
from linux? Perhaps the tools are different?

Btw.: There are so much errors or messages, looking like errors, that I 
simply wouldn't see the one you are pointing at when not trying to 
specifically filter for it.

To me the whole doc build process looks surprising anyway. The surprise 
is, that I end up having some readable docs despite the long warning and 
"error" listsings. But this might be specific to linux. If so, perhaps 
an indication, that the doc build process doesn't port easily?

Btw.: Did you ever try to build bjam pdf for the whole library?
