My guess is that you have previously built the documentation using the
old doc build system (under docs-xml) in the same tree that you are
trying to build the whole of samba (which now includes code to build the
manpages). 

Ensure you have no local files that matter in the tree, and run:

git clean -x -f -d

This will clean out the generated files.
