I just tried it here and sorry, doesn't work from me.

What I did:

    - cd vorbis/doc/
    - advpng -z4 *.png"
    - patch -p0 < vorbis-docbook.patch
    - make clean
    - make

During the make I got a huge number of warnings and errors from fop like
this:

and the resulting PDF was missing the images.

I'm running Ubuntu Intrepid and using fop version 1:0.94.dfsg-2ubuntu2 installed
from ubuntu.

I have no problems with LaTeX and I know at least one other person who
contributes who feels comfortable with it.
