This message is not about not finding libraries so adding -I options is useless.

ocamldoc complains about not finding ocamldoc information about
BatSet.StringSet to create cross reference links in documentation.

To fix it, you have to give sources of BatSet on the ocamldoc command
line, or use the -load option to load an ocamldoc dump produced from
the BatSet sources.
