When I build that port, the image link points (correctly) to
file:///usr/local/share/doc/freebsd/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/bsdinstall/bsdinstall-keymap-select-default.png

What options are set for the port?  I tried only HTML and HTML-SPLIT.

Could you have an entry in /etc/make.conf that is interfering?  Maybe 
NO_STAGE, or some non-default directory for building or installing?
