Well, after updating my sandbox, it seems like this problem has
disappeared. I just now managed to get a sandbox build done without
running into any errors.

But I did need to go into doc/Makefile and uncomment lines 563-565 -

  $(HTML_FILES): $(DOC_XML) $(DOC_DEP)
         $(db2x_xsltproc) -I -s $(XSLT_HTML) $<
         -$(TIDY) -q -m -asxhtml -f /dev/null $(HTML_FILES)

Also, note: XML::Handler gets installed in /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/,
but that path isn't in @INC on Cygwin. I fixed it locally by setting up
symlink, but seems like the install should put it in /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/
instead. Or somewhere that's in the default @INC on Cygwin.
