Modify the xfig.info file in the following simple way: In the CompileScript line

remove the word "xfig", so that it reads

The modification to the xfig.info file works. I would suppose that the same modification should be made to the xfig323.info file (which would also not update for me).

For the record I should perhaps explain why this works (since I don't have xfree86-4.5.0, I wanted to wait and see if it really works ;-) ):

Removing "xfig" in the above line is the same as making "all", and the "all" target has a dependency on xfig.1.html, so that the latter gets made, too. The same effect would be obtained by adding the target "xfig.1.html" instead of removing the "xfig" target.

This is already done in xfig323 (always was, even in the very first versions from 4 years ago <http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/fink/packages/dists/unstable/main/finkinfo/graphics/Attic/xfig-3.2.3d-2.info?annotate=1.2>), so I am not quite sure why xfig323 doesn't build for you. Perhaps a slightly different breakage?

In xfree86 CVS one finds the following change to the file xc/config/cf/Imake.rules, diff from 3.131 to 3.132 tagged xf_4_4_99_2, 2004/03/25:

  38. Remove dependencies from install targets so that from-tree installations
      can be done without attempting to rebuild anything (David Dawes, based on
      a patch and report from Lee Olsen).
<http://cvsweb.xfree86.org/cvsweb/xc/config/cf/Imake.rules>

Thus, starting with xfree86-4.4.99.2, they removed the xfig.1.html dependency from the "install.man" target, and for all xmkmf builds "make install" will break if "make all" wasn't done before.
