Getting back to this. I am currently on a journey to attempt to 
build the docs and/or the website (I'm not sure if the two are 
mutually exclusive).

I'm following the instructions on the wiki: 
http://wiki.dlang.org/Building_DMD#Building_the_Docs. They're 
Posix-only, but I know I was able to do this part before and at 
least get a semi-working version of the website. The problem is 
that I forget how I got it to work now.

For building the tools, I run `make -fwin32.mak` and it manages 
to build findtags. It then fails with `Error: don't know how to 
make '\cbx\mars\doc\expression.html'`, so my journey is over 
fairly quickly.

If someone could help with this, I can add a Windows-specific 
section to the wiki for building the docs/website.
