Tangentially related...


The Guile build uses the in-tree Guile executable in
the GEN guile-procedure.texi step.  Backed when I hacked on Guile,
failing at that step was pretty common if the executable is less
than 100%.  But a version of Guile that isn't correct enough
to pass that step may still be functional enough to run much
of 'make check'.

Thus, I often found it useful hand edit the Makefile to strip out the
document generation steps so that the build would continue as far as
possible.
