b75d021081 Typo: "TWELV" --> "TWELVE"
Added note at top, since LaTeX style writers like to force name
changes when someone else makes a change to the style.  I'm sending a
note to the author reporting the error and asking for an updated
version.

This cannot be distributed in this form.  This will be resolved when I
get a response from Ulf Lindgren.

Typo reported by rwolff@noao.edu (Richard Wolff).

only expand this in dependency lists.  Thanks for Sjoerd Mullendar for
pointing this out.

aaed9710e9 create_module_info(): New function: Modify a <section> to create a
<moduleinfo> element based on various meta information, and
	strip some cruftiness.  This is more usable for information
	extraction, and organizes the information more clearly.

cleanup_synopses():  Rewrite to use create_module_info(), so this
	will work with multi-rooted "documents".
