Do you have an entry called 'Gettysburg'? Is there anything unusual about that entry?
Yes. I noticed that that entry was the first entry with an alternate category. For example, if the 5 most recent entries were in the category "one", and Gettyburg was in category "two", the build would fail on hitting the 6th entry (which is gettsburg). Toggle gettysburg to category one and the problem sort of cascades down to the next entry with an alternate category.
There isn't anything odd in that particular entry. And this only happens in the one blog. Others remain are unaffected.
