Or perhaps lack of configuration during build.

I have simply build git from original source RPM; this SRPM
does not use pre-compiled manpages (as it could), neither uses
configure to do autodetection of features (which might have
detected and fixed some build configuration needed).

Makefile has ASCIIDOC8 (set automatically by configure)
and DOCBOOK_XSL_172 (which is not autodetected).

I see the same error in manpages, for example in git-diff-tree(1)

       Example:

       .ft C
       :100644 100644 5be4a4...... 000000...... M file.c
       .ft
