The currently-generated doctype (for ARM05, I suspect it might be
different for other possibilities) is
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
so XHTML compliance isn't strictly an issue. No bad thing, of course.
I see that Jacob's original request didn't ask for my 'p', so I should
probably have left it off.
The cross-references in the current ARM appear to use generated names
like I7733, need to avoid clashes!
