Answer 1

The instructions you found in the project are old. That hasn't worked since 2006.

Instead, I found you can

cd xmldoc
b2

And the docs will be generated in xmldoc/html:

google-chrome html/index.html

Note that I did this locally from the 1.80.0 release tar ball. However, be aware that there can be quite a slew of requirements to build the documentation. I usually start off with Debian's

apt build-dep libboost-all-dev

But I do remember having to manually install extra stuff for quickbook/docbook.
