After some digging, I think the full sentences are
- By default executables should not be built with the debugging
option -g. Instead, it is recommended to support building the
package with debugging information optionally. Details in [10.1]
- The system-wide mail directory is now /var/mail, no longer
/var/spool/mail. Any packages accessing the mail spool should
access it via /var/mail and include a suitable Depends field;
details in [11.6]
So "details in" is a left-over from the conversion to HTML:
the reerence [10.1] is now at the head of the paragraph instead of
the end.
I will fix it. Thanks for noticing it.
