This same issue was posted by Bill Suit on September24.  
http://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2003-September/008650.html

There was no posted resolution to his problem.  No I am a new user
having the same issue.  When I make install from the
gnucash-docs-1.8.3 directory I get this output (shortened):

It just freezes there until I "CRTL-C" it. Upon doing that it dumps
the following to the screen.
