I confirm the bug on my Debian system:

Clean checkout, nothing unusual about bootstrap.sh,

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/plplot_at --enable-java --enable-gnome

(I don't think anything is relevant here except a non-standard prefix
is used and lack of --enable-doc).

make

....

cp BUGS BUGS.octave
cp INSTALL INSTALL.octave
cp FGA FGA.octave
cp ToDo ToDo.octave
cp USAGE USAGE.octave
cp README README.octave
mkdir -p plplot_octave_txt
cp etc/plplot.doc plplot_octave_txt/plplot.doc
cd plplot_octave_txt; \
../../../doc/docbook/bin/api2text.pl \
../../../doc/docbook/src/plplotdoc.xml.in \
../../../doc/docbook/src/api.xml

Rafael, to confirm the bug on your own system, I suggest you try a clean
checkout and use a configure with a non-standard prefix and no
--enable-docbook.
