docs on 8 GB of tmpfs, and others have found the same problem in other
distros, e.g. Debian.  Here's what I have in my notes:
# Edited build.mk to disable PS and PDF docs, which fail to build (maybe
fixed by
# using different dblatex version but apparently the doc build is fragile)

My build.mk then has for the perf build:

ifeq "$(BuildFlavour)" "perf"

# perf matches the default settings, repeated here for comparison:

SRC_HC_OPTS     = -O -H64m
GhcStage1HcOpts = -O -fasm
GhcStage2HcOpts = -O2 -fasm
GhcHcOpts       = -Rghc-timing
GhcLibHcOpts    = -O2
GhcLibWays     += p
BUILD_DOCBOOK_PS   = NO
BUILD_DOCBOOK_PDF  = NO

I think that those last two assigns will fix the problem at the expense of
building only html docs.
