That post won't help you much, because the tools can only be used to convert a tab-delimited text file to an .html file that can be compiled with KindleGen.
If you found an .epub version of a Dutch dictionary, it most likely already contains html tags and can therefore not be used as a source file for the tools mentioned in the other thread.

In order to use your source file(s), you'd have to globally replace all tags until the structure more or less matches my example file. E.g. if the dictionary definitions are enclosed in <div></div>, you'd have replace <div> with <div><idx:entry> and </div> with </idx:entry></div>; you'd have to make sure that each headword is enclosed by <idx:orth></idx:orth> etc.
