Applied, thanks! Saturday morning is a good time for reviewing easy
patches...  :)

I rolled this one back, however, as I'd rather not link directly into the
manual, since the URL involved is fragile, and can change if we add or
remove sections from the manual.  Ideally we'd have the home page built
from related sources to the manual so we could produce a robust link into
content in the manual...
