Finally managed to do this after a lot of futzing around with
./configure in the evolution directory. However I'd really prefer
to do it via the higher-level jhbuild script if I can figure out how

are getting to be too many metalevels (autogen, pkg-config, configure,
make, jhbuild, m4 etc.) for the average human to understand :-)
