when I run autoregen.sh I get:

xmldocs.make:39: docdir was already defined in condition TRUE, which  
includes condition ENABLE_SCROLLKEEPER ...
help/manual/C/Makefile.am:8:   `xmldocs.make' included from here
configure.in:8: ... `docdir' previously defined here

btw. its:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316508

the upstream version has not seen many changes too
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnome-common/trunk/doc-build/xmldocs.make?revision=3486&view=markup

I wrote an email to gnome-doc list and if nothing happens, file a bug  
against gnome-common.
