I do not know what it mean, but I had similar problems (well, it looks 
similar to me, in this world you never knows) and had to use two steps 
to correct it:

   1. Add the full path to the tools/xml2po file when running ./autogen.sh:
      ./autogen.sh (...) *XML2PO=absolute/path/to/tools/xml2po*
   2. Comment out the symlink test in the HTML IMAGE section of Makefile
      (without extension) and :
      # Cygwin
      html/%/images: FORCE
      /*#*    $(cmd) test -h $@ && rm -f $@/
        $(cmd) test -d $@ && rm -rf $@/* || $(MKDIR_P) $@
      ...

I am using Cygwin. Perhaps the problem is different in plain Linux?
(I think Ulf-D has a better explanation/solution when he has finished 
his updating).
