I guess so. Since we aren't likely (I don't think!) to get an updated
debiandoc-sgml, can someone check to see whether we could perhaps
define the mdash entity, when making HTML, to '-' or '--', perhaps in
defaults.ent?
If someone can get this fixed (I don't have time) and just commit it
in CVS that would pretty much fix the problem.
