Hi Paul,
Yes, that bug regarding certain line endings was reported and fixed
after the release of 1.78.1. The latest XSL snapshot works as expected.
The fixed file is manpages/utility.xsl and the fixed template in that
file is named "mixed-block".

I'm noticing a difference in manpage production with 1.78.0 versus 1.78.1.
Consider this input:

<secondary>help option</secondary>
</indexterm>
<indexterm significance="normal">

<option>--help</option>
</para>
<para>
Display a help message and exit.

</listitem>
1.78.0 output is okay, with the <indexterm> elements written as groff comments
terminated by newlines
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1

\fB\-\-help\fR
.sp
Display a help message and exit\&.

1.78.1 output loses the newlines after the indexterm elements. The result is
that the option
value (\fB\-\-help\fR) is glued onto the end of the long comment line. So of
course it disappears
from the output of nroff -man and the resulting man page doesn't show the
option. :-)

The only manpages difference I see between 1.78.0 and 1.78.1 occurs here:

If I change the 1.78.1 utility.xsl comparison from != to the = comparison used
in 1.78.0, the output reverts to the correct form (with newlines included).
I see no other difference in the output.
