xmldocs.make is used to build the user-manual for gtk-doc. There is a  
plan to switch to gnome-doc-utils for the gtk-doc manual, but its  
blocked on broken libxml on ubuntu edgy. Will check this again after  
upgrading to gutsy.

Anyway, I still see xmldocs.make use here and there and thus would  
like to figure our whats wrong there and fix it.
