Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: Re: DOCBOOK: xref or link?

That did the trick.  Of course, we had to modify each of "appendix",
"sect1", "sect2" ... to get all those elements as well.  And we had to
include the common/dblen.ent as an entity to have all the entities
resolve, using this line at the top of our customized stylesheet:

<!ENTITY % en.words SYSTEM
"/usr/lib/sgml/stylesheets/nwalsh-modular/common/dbl1en.ent"> %en.words

Thank you very much Jirka.
