Comment(by kyngchaos):

 OK, the help files issue is partly my fault for OS X - the OS X install
 was missing the tools dir, and the main GRASS makefile does install
 mkhtml.sh.  Fixed for OS X.

 g.html2man still needs to be installed.  It looks like mkhtml.sh was
 hacked to install into the dist dir during compilation from the main
 makefile, instead of from the tools/ makefile, so I'd say just do the same
 for g.html2man.

 Otherwise, I tested with those installed, plus the man.make change, and
 g.extension worked without a failure.
