Thanks!

That would be a mistake. I'm working on fixing it now. Thanks for spotting 
it.

Perhaps we should generate the built docs when building a release tarball, 
so that users don't need to install docbook and run it to generate usable 
docs?

I don't actually know, sorry. Perhaps Per Thomsen, who wrote it, can tell 
you? I'd like it to be under the same license, or perhaps GFDL.

Cheers, Chris.
