If you look at the "Logs" column of the table linked above, it says "no logs" for arch:all and arch:amd64. This means the DD built these locally and uploaded the binaries, the buildds did not build for these architectures.
Since your error is in generating the documentation, there might be an inherent problem with building that documentation, that was obscured on the DD's own machine. (Maybe missing B-D). I was suggesting that you try the build against sid, to check that if this is the case. If so (i.e. it FTBFS), then it needs a RC bug filed against it. If not, then my hint here isn't useful.
