+1 on the change for reasons we discussed earlier, but the PDF output is
*ugly*.

Not only is there the right margin problem (which I think can be fixed
by adding colspec elements with colwidth attributes inside the tgroup
for the table), this seems incompatible with the "footnotes at the
bottom of the page" setting I like to use for printed documents. I'm
currently in the middle of rebuilding a server at home...I'll see what I
can do in a few days if nobody has fixed this up by then.

I don't know how much the print versions get used across the FreeBSD
community, but *I* use them. :-)

Thanks!

Bruce.
