Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: jadetex 3.9

[Joe Cooper <joe at swelltech dot com>]

Hi Sebastian,

Looks like there are still some issues.  I've fetched and installed 3.9, 
and I'm still getting undefined references messages, and wierdness in 
the TOC.  It's a new wierdness, so I guess you're poking the right spot, 
but it's still not quite right.

Beginning with TOC references to roman numbered pages beyond i (ii, iii, 
etc.) the entry looks like 'qqq ??' or 'iqqq ??' (for iii).

Actually now that I'm looking at it closer... Every page number that is 
two of the same number becomes 'qqq'.  So 11, 22, 33, 44, etc. are all 
qqq ??. This only occurs in the TOC--the pages themselves have correct 
page numbers.

My TeX knowledge is extraordinarily weak, but now that I've alerted the 
experts, I'm going to go dig in now and see if I can spot the problem.

I greatly appreciate your work on this problem so far, Sebastian.
