It has been long since I had to deal with a problem like this in my set-up but it was a host configuration error that always wanted to download these docbook DTDs by not having proper XML catalog entries (and failing to download them, which as you can see is the error you are getting).

Sorry, no, I do not do Macintoshes, so even if I remember exact steps I took to fix my host configuration error several years ago on my Debian box, I suspect that the solution would not apply to you.
