;; 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.
