Thanks for the patch -- I applied a modified version (we can't use
<ulink url="...">description</ulink> since that won't work for printed
versions of the docs).

Sure it will.  We use that all over the place.

Not since Bruce took them all out a few days ago ;-).  If you were
unhappy with that you should have spoken up.  I thought the problem
was that the default printed representation doesn't show the URL
and is thus pretty useless.

Right.  I took them out specificially becuase Peter said it wouldn't
print the URL, just the description, and that was bad.  I standardized
on <ulink url="..."></ulink> which prints just the URL, and worked the
description on to the existing sentence.
