+;; This patches around a problem that I don't completely understand,
+;; and which may in fact be an xsltproc bug rather than a db2latex
+;; bug. Symptom is that the generated \title{} contains not only the
+;; book title but also the concatenation of all the chapter titles.
+;; This makes no sense, it doesn't happen with saxon, it doesn't
+;; happen with all versions of xsltproc, and attempts to trace this
+;; with --verbose and <xsl:message/> leave me more wondering whether
+;; it's me or xsltproc that doesn't understand the XSLT pattern
+;; matching rules.
+;;
+;; All that said, the change below prevents the bad behavior and
+;; should be completely harmless, so it will do as a workaround.
