Hello list.

I'm trying to compile ghc 6.12.1, but the documentation part fails because dblatex can't escape all the backslashes that it should. (I've tried dblatex-2.10, -2.11 and -2.12.)

A similar problem has been discussed earlier [1], but even with Christiaan's suggested solution it fails at Cabal:

What version of dblatex and what tweeks have you people used to actually build the documentation successfully?

My dblatex here reports that it is version 0.2.8, and on our Windows build machine I have 0.2.7. I'm afraid I know nothing about dblatex at all, so any progress you can make on this would be useful. Cheers, Simon
