You are right, I was building in a chroot, not a pbuilder, which happened to
have libxml-sax-expat-perl installed. The fix would be then simply to add
libxml-sax-expat-perl to the build-dependencies, as you suggested.
As this fix is not intended for etch, we could take the opportunity to
package the newest upstream version (0.8.7). At any rate, it is strange
that debian/changelog in CVS contains:
docbook2x (0.8.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release
* debian/control: minor cosmetic updates
* Added 'debian/watch'

but version 0.8.5-1 was never uploaded. Ardo?
I have been responsible for this package in the past, mainly because the
plplot package build-depended on it. Now that I orphaned plplot, I lost
interest in maintaining docbook2x. I hope someone will step forward and
update the package.
