Not sure if this is what you're hitting, but it looks like evolution
2.10.1 was built with gnome-doc-utils 0.10.2, which has a serious bug
that causes the build to fail when you try to compile with scrollkeeper
disabled [1].

I had to patch gnome-doc-utils.make in order to package it for Fedora
Core.  I've attached the patch.

Hope this helps,
Matthew Barnes
