Probably the error was saying that it couldn't compile the documentation as it couldn't
find the sgml-tools. So get those tools (where??) install them and it should run.
In the README it will say something like 'make doc' or 'make install' (I don't have
access to my system right now ;-) ).

Good guess, don't know if you did anything wrong.
