I have some changes to the manual, but before I submit a patch I'd
like to make sure things look right.  Rather than completely re-build
all of glibc, is there a way I can just process the texi file?  I've
tried a full re-build of glibc, but I get build errors in the elf/
subdir (see below).

But rather than hash out build errors, I'd just like to process the
texi file and make sure I have things setup correctly.

Thanks,
Pete

Here's the build error:
