It worked!

It may indeed qualify as a `gtk-doc-tools' bug.  ;-)

I can't see any change related to that in the repo at `repo.or.cz'.  Did
you forget to push it?

Now, I'm still unable to run `distcheck' because PDF generation fails [0].
I believe the issue is that several runs are needed to get it right but
make stops after the first one (which fails).  But then, how can it work
on your computer and not on mine?

Thanks!

Ludovic.
