That's not the way this is supposed to work.  These replacements are
supposed to happen automatically at configure time.

You need an installed latex for them, and probably also a texi2html
(if it's not part of your latex distribution).  I believe Eric
Weddington recently posted to avr-libc-dev what he needed to get the
docs built there.  As avr-libc used Doxygen, much more tools are
needed for that.  I think avrdude's docs just need a subset of those
tools only.

But the default is to not build the docs at all -- you just only broke
that with your editing above.
