The engine takes the English XML document and applies translations to it. The tool, xml2po, is installed as part of textproc/gnome-doc-utils. I'm currently working on porting GNOME 2.21, and one of the Evolution help doc changes triggered a memory problem on my test machine. Basically, with up to and including rev 1.154 of malloc.c, I am able to generate the help file with no errors. With all later revs including 1.160, the Python process balloons up to about 512 MB of memory, then dies. The only malloc config I've done is symlink Aj to /etc/malloc.conf. I'd be happy to provide the file an exact command used, but it might be easier to let me know if there's any debugging I could provide that would help here.
