True.  I made sure this wasn't the case for mh-book.  

But the regexp could easily be made to change only localhost or
no-host links, couldn't it?

e.g change only stuff like:
<A HREF="path/file.html">
<A HREF="http://localhost/path/file.html";>

I only went through the exercise for mh-book to save 2.5 MB.  I
didn't do it for gri to save 0.5MB.
