However for unix the real issue is to have the html files been built.

I thought about parameterized Makefile.am and a catalog.xml.in that
overwrite both files  from the repo (used by cygwin) if --with-fop=xxx
--with-docbook=yyy options are passed to ./configure. What the
--with-fop option should look for is fop, xlstproc and xmllint, the
other one locates the dtds.
