If this command is specified as part of the build, it shouldn't work anywhere: "WORKSFORME" would never apply. If it isn't in the build process everywhere, what are the criteria that turn it on or off?

If you have it on the local filesystem, as I did when I re-ran the build after I saw why it was failing, of course it worked.

Here's full log if you still want to see it. Here's what I have done:

------------------------------
# cd /usr/ports/devel/eggdbus
# make extract
===>  License check disabled, port has not defined LICENSE
===>  Extracting for eggdbus-0.6_1
=> SHA256 Checksum OK for eggdbus-0.6.tar.gz.
# ls
Makefile.am               Makefile.in               eggdbus-binding-tool.xml
# cd work/eggdbus-0.6/docs/man
xsltproc -v -nonet
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/docbook.xsl
eggdbus-binding-tool.xml >& log.txt
# ls
Makefile.am               eggdbus-binding-tool.1    log.txt
Makefile.in               eggdbus-binding-tool.xml
