True, it's not.  It's helpful to have the auto-generated version
available for people to review leading up to a release, though, rather
than having them check it out of cvs and build it themselves.  (Some of
the visual-designer-types here in Sun I'd be getting to review it
probably wouldn't be able to do that anyway!)

I've no idea what script causes things to be rebuilt when you commit
changes, but you can reproduce the problem easily enough on widget:

$ cd
/usr/local/www/gnomeweb/gnomecvs/web-devel-2/content/projects/gup/hig
$ ./build-hig.sh
rm: cannot remove `*.html': No such file or directory
Writing ln-id2810515.html for legalnotice
Writing intro.html for preface(intro)
Writing usabilityprinciples.html for chapter(usabilityprinciples)
Error xpath.c:8353: Undefined namespace prefix
xmlXPathCompiledEval: evaluation failed
./build-hig.sh: line 7: 14553 Segmentation fault      xsltproc
../stylesheets/hig-stylesheet.xsl ../hig-book.xml

Greg Leblanc said he'd look into it a couple of weeks ago, but I guess
he hasn't had time yet.  It seems to be breaking the accessibility guide
and user guide as well, so I don't think it's anything funny that the
HIG is doing.

Cheeri,
Calum.
