I just checked. It is intentional that docdir is not buildrooted unlike 
mandir. It is due to the way the autoconf process works.

In the Makefile, you have the following:
	...
	htmldir = $(docdir)/html/docbook-utils-0.6
	...
	install-htmlDATA: $(html_DATA)
	        ...
	        $(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(htmldir)
                                          ^^^^^^^^^^^
so the buildrooting is done outside of the "docdir" variable by autoconf 
default behaviour.

I know this is not logical, but I'm not responsible for that.

I encourage you to give a try at building once agin the package to check what 
I'm saying.
