 * status:  new => closed
 * resolution:   => fixed
 * milestone:   => 8.0.1


Comment:

 Turns out both issues are fixed already:

 * The [wiki:MakingReleases] page now mentions to run `./mk/get-
 win32-tarballs.sh download all` first.

 * When `mk/build.mk` says to build the documentation, but configure
 figured out that the right tools aren't available, then the build will
 error out with a nice message (#10157).
