No problem. I was just worried that you might want to put work into
fixing something that isn't the problem. Of course it sounds like it
_is_ a bug but it is not the one that I meant.

For some odd reason, the sphinx on my system expects a contents.rst
instead of a index.rst. Is seems like the master_doc in common/conf.py
is somehow ignored. If I do the following before the build, everything
works fine:

for f in **/index.rst; do ln -s index.rst "`echo $f | sed
's/index.rst/contents.rst/'`"; done

My sphinx version is 1.8.1.

Libbsd is updated. For some reason the ticket in Track hasn't picked up
the change. Did I make some error in the description?
