Roger,

this is the same problem I had. There was a svn conflict introduced
because Makefile.depend is regenerated by automake but it is also in the
repository (somebody tell me why this should be in the repository then,
since automake is mandatory for an svn build?).

There must have been one change that caused a local modification of this
file, which was not committed at the time of the change, followed by
another change recently in the svn repository that conflicts with the
existing change.

Try "svn revert lib/doc/Makefile.depend" and build it again. Don't
bother with "make clean" or anything like that.

Have fun,
Darren
