I think there's a fundamental issue with this --before and
--after logic: dh_auto_build is run in the /build/ rules. It
has no place in the /binary/ rules. If you call /any/ of the
binary sequences after the build sequences, they will already
have been run. Additionally, you should not be running
$(MAKE) in the binary-indep rule. Run it in build-indep,
which is there for exactly this purpose.
I've not yet seen a non-buggy use of --before and --after.
If you make proper use of override_xxx-indep and/or the
standard build-indep target, there should never be a reason
to use them. What is preventing you from building the
docs in build-indep?

binary *must* be dependent upon both binary-arch and binary-indep,
i.e.
binary: binary-arch binary-indep
However, if you have the generic
%:
dh $@ --buildsystem=cmake --builddirectory=$(BUILDDIR)
then both the binary-arch and binary targets may be deleted
entirely; dh will do the right thing.

Are you using the latest debhelper? There was an issue with
-indep in #648901. It's fixed in 8.9.10; you might also need
to explicitly enable v9 compat mode. That bug shouldn't
affect -B though since it's calling the -arch targets directly.
Your use of dh --before/--after may have confused things
though.
