Ok, I've managed to dig a little more into the issue. Not I get this:

[ 80%] Building CXX object tdenewstuff/CMakeFiles/tdenewstuff-shared.dir/provider.cpp.o
I/O error : No such file or directory
/mnt/extended/source/tde/tdelibs/kdoctools/customization/tde-chunk.xsl:1: parser error : Document is empty

make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:8210: doc/tdespell/CMakeFiles/tdespell-en-handbook.dir/all] Error 2
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

A closer look at doc/tdespell/CMakeFiles/tdespell-en-handbook.dir/build.make:61 shows the following:

cd /mnt/extended/source/tde/build/tdelibs/doc/tdespell && ../../kdoctools/meinproc --srcdir=/mnt/extended/source/tde/tdelibs/kdoctools --check --cache index.cache.bz2 /mnt/extended/source/tde/tdelibs/doc/tdespell/index.docbook

starting this command manually leads to the same:

./meinproc --srcdir=/mnt/extended/source/tde/tdelibs/kdoctools --check --cache index.cache.bz2 /mnt/extended/source/tde/tdelibs/doc/tdespell/index.docbook
I/O error : No such file or directory
/mnt/extended/source/tde/tdelibs/kdoctools/customization/tde-chunk.xsl:1: parser error : Document is empty

^
Segmentation fault

This doesn't make any sense since both files do exist:

/mnt/extended/source/tde/tdelibs/doc/tdespell/index.docbook

and:

/mnt/extended/source/tde/tdelibs/kdoctools/customization/tde-chunk.xsl

I've also checked permissions, etc. all good. I'm root whild building.

Is there any way to exclude the doc/spell modules from the build process since I don't need nor do I want it anyway?

Thx and regards
