 I just ran into this issue on Mac OS X 10.4.9.  The problem is in
 htdocs/share/mk/doc.docbook.mk where line 60 is
 
 
 REQPKGS_PRINT?=        tex-jadetex>=3.13 ghostscript{,-esp,-gnu}{,-nox11}>=7.05
 
 
 A few lines later (see possible patch below), the ghostscript part is expanded
 by the shell (bash) into six separate strings and pkg_info only finds one of
 them is installed, hence the failure.  Patch below to escape '{' and '}' works
 here, but needs verification for other OSs.
