I guess for 3.11 we should just switch to loose HTML files and using the default browser, rather than fighting with dead CHM tools.

No idea what may have caused this. Has anyone tried analysing the file for unsupported JavaScript or something? I think that's what caused it last time. Maybe Sphinx got an update and is using unsupported CSS?

Doesn't seem to be any relevant changes in the repo between v3.10.2 and v3.10.3, and the theme hasn't changed. Obviously the HTMLHelp tools haven't changed in a decade or so, and the only difference in the build logs looks like less errors in the later one (apparently index terms didn't get fixed up properly in 3.10.2).

So other than running the build again and hoping (which we'll likely be doing later this week anyway), doesn't seem to be anything that can be fixed here.
