Okay, so this is really odd.  In paper-defaults-init.ly, we
have the lines:

 mm = 1.0
 in = 25.4
 pt = #(/ in 72.27)
 cm = #(* 10 mm)

Redefining \mm and \in like this creates no problems:

 mm = #1
 in = #(* 254/10 mm)

But making this further change to \pt breaks `make doc':

 pt = #(* 100/7227 in)


Big guess from someone who doesn't know the internals well enough. Wondering whether it's an integer maths problem somewhere. 254/10 = 25.4 (float) or 25 (int). 100/7227 = .013837 (float) or zero (int). If pt is defined as zero it might make things work badly?
