 When I was editing here, there were always two problems - people making
a change without testing if it allowed the book to generate, and changes
which accidentally broke other architectures.  Of the latter, I think I broke
alpha at least twice.  So, if the change makes the book less fragile, it will
be worthwhile.

 The possible downside is that it makes the resulting files hard to read and
navigate (similar to the #idfdef problems that have sometimes occurred
in C code).  I have confidence in your judgement.
