BTW, I don't think I saw the "id\d+" form of reference ever used in the
FAQ, but just in case, to fully preserve the prior functionality (i.e.,
allow references to those anchor forms), you could use something like

sed -i 's;<a name="\(.*\)"></a><a name="\(id[0-9]*\)"></a>;<a name="\1" id="\2"></a>;g' faq/faq*.html

to find the time to look for a DocBook way of fixing this.

If there's any real truth it's that the entire multidimensional infinity
