docbook2html doesn't get installed with the short name, so run:
ln -s /usr/local/bin/docbook2html .local/bin/db2html
The jhbuild bootstrap libtool is required, as libtool 1.5.26 (shipped in ports) is too old. Build the new one with:
jhbuild --moduleset bootstrap build libtool
For whatever reason libraries occasionally don't get symlinks created.
jhbuild shell cd $PREFIX/lib ln -s libgcrypt.so.16.2 libgcrypt.so ln -s libgpg-error.so.4.0 libgpg-error.so

Current Issues
shared-mime-info calls make instead of ${MAKE}, fixed in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20655 and waiting for new release.
Avahi doesn't respect ACLOCAL_FLAGS as set by the environment - they need to be added directly to autogen.sh, and maybe configure.in. autogen.sh also calls make instead of $MAKE (gmake).
- libdaemon doesn't build because of a reference to _NSIG (instead of NSIG) in dfork.c - this is fixed in HEAD but not 0.13.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=584581 nyer nyer nyer, I'm better at shell scripting than you
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/net/avahi-app/Makefile?annotate=1.18
- libproxy-0.2.3 doesn't build due to poor defines/flags. libproxy from SVN builds OK, but has the same ACLOCAL_FLAGS problem as avahi, and needs --with-python passed on the command line (otherwise it gets built but none of the paths get set for installation)
- dbus doesn't build using Position-Independent Executables - you have to remove @PIE_FLAGS@ from bus/Makefile.am and rerun automake from TOPSRCDIR.
