Hoping to try out some recent patches, I had my first experience with

This only has an effect if you have the rest of build.mk.sample too. So
if you're quoting the whole of your build.mk here, it won't have any effect.
SplitObjs = NO
BIN_DIST=1
BIN_DIST is no more. You can delete that.
XMLDocWays = html
This has also gone away. You want BUILD_DOCBOOK_HTML=YES (see
build.mk.sample).

), and took some notes:
- the configure summary is nice. it doesn't mention documentation tools,
though..
Right, it should mention xsltproc and dblatex.

Segmentation fault/access violation in generated code
No idea, but that is GHC 6.8.3 that is crashing, right?
I don't recall that ever happening before, so I simply tried again,
and it didn't repeat. Still, worrying.
- the build fell over after a long time, when trying to run (note the
unprotected spaces)
/cygdrive/c/Program Files/MiKTeX 2.7/miktex/bin/dblatex
if configure had mentioned documentation tools/paths, I might have
noticed that
tool change and wrong path myself; (btw, didn't the tool of choice use
to be fop?)
We switched from fop to dblatex, because almost nobody was able to get
fop to work (including us), but dblatex works everywhere.
Except, that is, on Windows if it is installed somewhere that has a
space in the path. We are planning to fix that, though (I believe it's
on Ian's todo list).
in any case, there was some agreement that configure should check for paths
the build couldn't handle (in this case, wrapping in "" should do the
job, though)
- since I didn't want to move miktex, and don't know what else might be
used from there in the build, I wrapped the command in "", in mk/config.mk,
and typed make again..
don't edit mk/config.mk, override in mk/build.mk instead. The docs do
say this.
you guessed it: everything was rebuilt! even though only one piece
depended on the change - could the dependencies be made more
precise, perhaps by splitting up config.mk?
It doesn't rebuild *everything*, though I agree you do get a lot of
rebuilding and reconfiguring whenever mk/config.mk changes.
I've just found some places we were depending on mk/config.mk where we
should have been depending on mk/project.mk. But this won't make any
difference in practice: configure always touches both of them anyway.
If we could prevent configure from touching files if they don't change,
that would help a lot.
- the build didn't continue through miktex's install interlude, though:

Apparently dblatex is not working in some way. Can you run it by hand
on a smaller DocBook XML document? e.g. try Haddock's documentation, or
Cabal's.
Cheers,
Simon
