Comment(by pramsey):

 I fooouund it! or something very much like it. I worked through a number
 of vagrant installs and today was freebsd day, and this is what I found.
 Here's my error
 {{{
 ---- Making all in postgis
 gmake[3]: Entering directory '/usr/home/vagrant/postgis-
 svn/extensions/postgis'

 }}}
 I do have xsltproc installed, and a clean build will create the comments
 in the doc directory. The problem is with PGXS, which is over-writing our
 value of $(PERL) with it's own value, which is "/bin/sh
 /usr/local/lib/postgresql/pgxs/src/makefiles/../../config/missing". Rather
 than, say "/usr/bin/perl". This is the *second* hell nonsense I endured
 during my platform playing thanks to PGXS, which makes using pre-built
 postgresql packages really quite hard.
