The configure stuff ran ok, however it didn't detect that libxml and
libxslt wasn't install so when it tried to build the documentation, make
crashed out saying it couldn't find "xsltproc". Once I installed those
packages, I got the following error:

[snip]
make[1]: Entering directory
`/<pathtopgsql>/postgresql-8.0.1/contrib/postgis-cvs/doc'
xsltproc \
        --output html/postgis.html \
        --param shade.verbatim 1 \
        --param section.autolabel 1 \
        --param section.label.includes.component.label 1 \
        --param chunk.section.depth 0 \
        --stringparam html.stylesheet style.css \
        /html/docbook.xsl \
        postgis-out.xml

make[1]: *** [html/postgis.html] Error 4
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/<pathtopgsql>/postgresql-8.0.1/contrib/postgis-cvs/doc'
make: *** [docs] Error 2

The code was checkout using the following command:
cvs co -r HEAD postgis

Also, I used the GNU compiler and linker as I couldn't get the Sun ones
to work.
