Then how come when I download the svn build from the site, I don't see
it in there?  Is there something wrong with the hudson build that its
not doing a re-run of configure maybe?

Okay will give this a try.  I assume this has to be the name of the
action as well or does it just have to be the actual action like.  so I
would change to

all: html/postgis.html	../postgis_comments.sql

../postgis_comments.sql: ./xsl/postgis_comments.sql.xsl
reference_new.xml
	$(XSLTPROC) ./xsl/postgis_comments.sql.xsl reference_new.xml >
$@


Thanks,
