Howdy,

Are you sure you weren't using a platexmkrc file to tell latexmk how to call makeindex? I don't see how it's supposed to know that you are using that ist file.

E.g., I typeset your file (I called it test.tex) an noted that latexmk ran
-----------
Running 'makeindex  -o "test.ind" "test.idx"'
-----------

I then created a platexmkrc file that simply defined $makeindex as
-----------
$makeindex = "makeindex -s doindex.ist %O -o %D %S";
-----------

and got
-----------
Running 'makeindex -s doindex.ist  -o "test.ind" "test.idx"'
-----------
