The gtk-doc builds started failing on all platforms when the following
security updates were added:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

The failure occurs during 'configure', as follows:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
checking for XML catalog... /gnu/store/b0xwhwj1725c10xcylwd65hdr8avjfh8-docbook-xml-4.3/xml/dtd/docbook/catalog.xml

checking for DocBook XSL Stylesheets in XML catalog... not found
configure: error: could not find DocBook XSL Stylesheets in XML catalog
phase `configure' failed after 3.6 seconds
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Whereas in earlier successful builds, the corresponding output was:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
