Add warning that mutable argument defaults are evaluated only once;
...
with examples and workaround. This keeps coming up, and I believe
that this section in the tutorial may have been (in part) the source
of the confusion. While it didn't show examples with [] for a default,
it also didn't emphasize enough why that would be a bad idea, and
while it did say that defaults are evaluated at the point of function
definition, the example was not relevant for this issue.

Variant of AMK's patch to produce text versions of HOWTO documents.
...
This ensures that the text version uses latex2html's -split 1 option, without
affecting HTML produced in the same run, and also minimizes the number of
l2h runs needed if --split 1 was used for an HTML run.

build_html(): Simplify, so there's only one version of the latex2html

command line.
l2hoption(): Convenience function, to write out an option to the aux. init.
file only if set.
Added --iconserver option to set the $ICONSERVER variable in latex2html; this
requires the use of an auxillary init. file since this can't be initialized
using a standard latex2html command-line option. So the aux. init. file is
used for just about all the special options since it has to be written anyway
when $ICONSERVER needs to be set.
