Works for me...
$ cp ~/src/ikiwiki/docwiki.setup ~/tmp
$ ikiwiki --setup docwiki.setup --set wikiname=hello --dumpsetup other.setup
shortcut plugin will not work without shortcuts.mdwn

$ file other.setup
other.setup: Perl script text executable
A similar command works for ikiwiki.info's YAML-formatted setup file (which
you can get from the 'setup' branch of ikiwiki's git repository), producing
YAML output.
Perhaps there is something specific to the setup file you are working
with that doesn't work, or some incompatible older version of ikiwiki
in /usr/local (or similar) on the system where it doesn't work?
