That means that configure failed to find it, and failed to determine
a setting for DOCBOOKSTYLE as well.

No, that would not be an improvement. If collateindex.pl were in your
PATH, then configure would have found it (cf PGAC_PATH_COLLATEINDEX),
and so COLLATEINDEX would be set and we'd not be here at all.
Maybe the Makefile should just error out if COLLATEINDEX isn't set,
rather than trying a "fallback" value that configure has already
determined isn't going to work.
