llvm dev - May 2017 - www-scripts Sphinx doc builder broken and needs intervention.

I don't know if that would make a difference. Whenever a CMake file is
changed and a build
rule is executed CMake is automatically re-run, but the variables in the
cache remain.
Since certain configuration doesn't re-run once a variable is in the cache,
a bad cache variable
can break the build until it's manually removed. I believe that's
what's
happening here.

I should clarify that when I originally said "reconfigure" I meant
deleting
the existing build directory and starting
fresh.

Ping. It's been another week.

When are we going to get the docs building and updating again?
