Sorry for this, but I was not able to figure out which error you mean. 
Building the docs currently produces so much noise, I just didn't see 
it. With error I just meant the fact that the docs are not getting 
build, and that the doc/xml directory doesn't get created (which I 
guessed to be necessary from previous observations.) Also I offered to 
send you logs of both builds (I didn't want to post them on the list 
without need). I even tried to find the exact chekin of yours that 
caused this. In light of this I read your "complained" as "urged".

Oh I see, but it is caused by doxygen not producing correct results 
isn't it? This is what I reported.

Yes, definitely. What would also be of help I guess is cleaner 
separation of source and targets as we have it for code. So the xml 
directory not being rebuilt would not have slipped through.
