Happy birthday, docs/45303!

[Warren Block]

Dear docs/45303,

It seems like only yesterday that I noticed you liked to run like a 
lemming all the way to the right border of the page and then jump off 
the precipice.  I wrote about it in
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=45303

Your parents, SGML and XSL (and uncle TeX!) were sure it was just a 
phase, not some kind of balance problem, and that you'd grow out of it 
eventually.

Now here it is, only two weeks until your ninth birthday.  Happy 
birthday!  Instead of a traditional gift, I've decided to ask a group of 
experts to help diagnose and hopefully solve your 
sprinting-off-to-the-right and leaping-off-the-edge problem.

For an example, I'll show them the table on page 12 of 
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/book.pdf.bz2

It's a pretty technical problem, but these people are very sharp and 
care about details and correctness.  Don't be embarrassed!  If any of 
them is familiar with the stylesheets and rendering methods, they might 
be able to take a look and make suggestions, or it may be one of those 
things where someone with just the right expertise leans in and says 
"oh, sure, just do this" and it's fixed.  Or maybe it's not something 
that can be fixed.  That's okay too, everyone has things they have to 
learn to live with.

I've also enclosed the traditional gift for other people's 
nine-year-olds... a really loud whistle.  Happy birthday!
