FYI, this is documented in release.sgml in an SGML comment:
For new features, add links to the documentation sections. Use </link>not just </> so that generate_history.pl can
removeit, so HISTORY.htmlcan be created without links to the main documentation. Don't use<xref>.
<xref> can't be used because there is no text to keep, and </link> ( not
</>) has to be used so we remove the right tag.
