I found out what is causing the problems. Apparently rosdoc was never used before with a doxygen version containing a build number (i.e. major.minor.patch.build). I adapted the source of rosdoc to cover the extra build number in the doxygen version.

I filed a bug in trac and also submitted the patch there (https://code.ros.org/trac/ros-pkg/ticket/5451).

Patch:
