Hi Glynn,

My first guess would be that you lack Perl, which is required for the
g.html2man script. Check the PERL line in include/Make/Platform.make.

Given that man pages aren't likely to be used on Windows, I wouldn't
bother about it.

We can probably avoid the error with:

--- man/Makefile        (revision 30532)
+++ man/Makefile        (working copy)
@@ -10,7 +10,11 @@

 MANPAGES := $(patsubst $(HTMLDIR)/%.html,$(MANDIR)/%.$(SECT),$(wildcard $(HTMLDIR)/*.html))

+ifeq ($(PERL),no)
+default:
+else
 default: $(MANPAGES)
+endif

 $(MANDIR):
        $(MKDIR) $(MANDIR)
