This is distinctly odd.
The etc/archive.cook file has lines in it which read

example-cook-fhist-version =3D 1.0;
example-cook-fhist-baseline =3D
     [collect aegis -cd -bl -p
example-cook-fhist.[example-cook-fhist-version]
        '2>/dev/null' || true];

if [example-cook-fhist-baseline] then
{
    html-targets +=3D
        archive/example-cook-fhist.html
        archive/example-cook-fhist.ae
        ;

    archive/example-cook-fhist.html: [example-cook-fhist-baseline]/README.h=
tml
	set shallow
    {
	cp [need] [target];
    }

    ...etc...
}

But the error message says
	problems deriving file "aegis:"
which indicates that Cook is using the *error mesasage* from Aegis
(saying project example-cook-html doesn't exist) as the path for the
file it's looking for.  Oops.

This looks like a Cook bug - and Cook isn't doing that to me.  Can you
look into this for me?
