Yeah, that is pretty icky, and Bruce introduced similar unpleasantness
in a bunch of places. I'm unsure that xreflabel is a good fix, though,
because there are other places where the wording is such that a
chapter/section number reference *is* appropriate, eg a parenthetical
cross-reference "(see <xref>)".
I think what we might need is to use <link linkend="xml2">xml2</link>
in the places where we want the xref to read as an incidental hyperlink
rather than a cross-reference. Comments?
