The problem appears to be a manifestation of a TCL bug -- "file delete
-force" has trouble recursively deleting directories under certain
conditions (see
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/Tcl-bugs/2838168 ).
The following patch to the Portfile allows me at least to bypass that
bug and get gnucash-docs built and installed:

Side question: Does anyone know why the German version of the
documentation is also built by default?
