I would suggest to you to try to build the gnome-2-32 branch, but using
a more direct approach than the above Makefile. I just tried it on my
ubuntu maverick vmware and it gave me strange errors like a missing
gtk+-3.
A few weeks ago, I built the master and gnome-2-32 branches on this box
and I'll give you an outline of what I did:

I am only using gtkhtml, evolution-data-server and evolution projects.
If you need others, like libgweather or evolution-exchange or
evolution-mapi you need to check them out and build them as well.
See http://git.gnome.org/browse/.

====================================================
So I created a base directory like ~/evo-src

cd evo-src
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gtkhtml -b gnome-2-32
git clone git://git.gnome.org/evolution-data-server -b gnome-2-32
git clone git://git.gnome.org/evolution -b gnome-2-32
mkdir obj/gtkhtml
cd gtkhtml
# The following does not execute the configure yet
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/evo/lib/pkgconfig/  CC='ccache gcc' CFLAGS=-g
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/evo/lib NOCONFIGURE=y  bash ./autogen.sh
--prefix='/opt/evo' --disable-deprecated-warning-flags
# Now actuall execute configure
cd ../obj/gtkhtml
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/evo/lib/pkgconfig/  CC='ccache gcc' CFLAGS=-g
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/evo/lib   bash ../../gtkhtml/autogen.sh
--prefix='/opt/evo' --disable-deprecated-warning-flags

make
make install
====================================================

Do the same thing for evolution-data-server and evolution and the
other modules. In the case of evolution I had to do a "make -k"
to let it run through, the build would complain about some missing help
files.
You may have to install some missing packages:

A
sudo apt-get build-dep evolution 
should install most of them.

I had to do a 
sudo apt-get install gobject-introspection 
as well.

Hope that helps.
