Not really a solution, but Michael Elkins pointed out that this is
"only" the html documentation, and the building of it can be disabled by
editing the SUBDIRS variable in the makefile. See

I think the problem is the lack of sgml2html on Cygwin, but I am at
a bit of a loss as to how the official package was built if that's the
case.
