Based on this, I assume you are using 1.76.1 of the stylesheets not a
snapshot? Either way, since you are a user, recompiling of the indexer is
not needed.
AFAIR, 1.76.1 didn't have support for building webhelp via make. So, if
needed you could have just copy the Makefile from a snapshot to your
webhelp directory, and tweak as necessary. Invoke the indexer is currently
done by 'ant index' command. The make command also calls ANT inside the
script.

I suppose you are not eager to install ANT, eh? :)
Unfortunately, you can not run 1.76.1 without ANT. The indexer there is
specific to ANT, because it uses ANT task definition (taskdef). The good
news is that the current snapshot does not depend on ANT. So, if needed you
could just read the ANT script and convert it to make. But you need to have
Java installed (with JAVA_HOME properly set.)
So, what you can do is just use the indexer from snapshot inside 1.76.1.
Are you interested in trying this bridged webhelp? Or use the latest
version?
Former also shouldn't be a big deal. I can help you out there if needed.
Possible steps that comes into my mind is,
1. Replace webhelpindexer.jar in docbook-xsl-1.76.1/extensions/, and copy
tagsoup-1.2.1.jar to the same directory.
2. Then read the 'index' target in the ant build.xml. This one is pretty
easier to understand, not like the previous.
3. Adapt it to 'make'.
Apart from the file copying, the java task looks like the following without
all the clutter. [1] You can do the same via make by invoking java with the
relevant parameters and the classpath set.
ie. java -DhtmlDir=docs/content -DindexerLanguage="xx" -DfillTheRest=true
-classpath path/to/lucene/1.jar:2.jar:/path/to/tagsoup/jar
I probably have missed something here because I haven't tried this.
