Now I see the problem ...

It seems that we didn't neglected that the DocBook Makefile 
builds single books, e.g.

  make DOCBOOKS=device-drivers.xml htmldocs

Since the Makefile.sphinx does not care the environment DOCBOOKS,
the XML is build and the reST also, where only the XML content
should be build.

Jani, may could you apply a small fix on the Makefile.sphinx which
takes into account, not to run the sphinx-build if the DOCBOOK 
environment is set .. is it a solution for a start?
