Well, OK. But where? 

Here's what I did--copied /usr/bin/db2html to ./foobar, then edited the
final jade calls to include -V nochunks. Ran 

./foobar cygwin-ug.sgml > cygwin-ug.html

and viola! One file. Attached is the gzip'ed result. 
Obviously this is not a long-term solution. If we're going to have the
two versions of the UG coexist, I need a better db2html so the Makefile
can produce both.
