Thanks, I had already tried `org-html-publish-to-html, but got the 
following backtrace:

A bit more investigating showed that the file causing the problem was a 
blank .org file with no content at all. Removing this fixed the problem 
and I can now export! I don't know if not being able to handle files 
with no content should be considered a bug or not.
