The only machine at my disposal with a working Python installation (and I'm afraid I don't feel inclined to install it anywhere else, Python on AIX is painful, and obviously if I was a Python nut, I'd be running mercurial anyway, right?) is my desktop cygwin installation.

At least there obtaining asciidoc was no problem, but I think I'm stuck in some docbook2x dependency hell with lots of twisty turny prerequisities, all alike.

Now deep in a dark cave with a sign saying "Can't locate XML/Handler/SGMLSpl.pm in @INC", which is where my adventure ends. Score 0/100.

So a volunteer would still be appreciated.
