The makefile, in the utmac/demo, runs three passes of roff. During the first pass, it exports a summary to a temporary file. During the second pass, the macros S2, S3, S4 and S* load that file and print a summary. A third pass is needed in case the introduction of the summaries in the document shifted page numbers. So, indeed, psutils is not needed. I think it's a good way to do such things, as page numbers are coherent with that system, compliant with the french habbit, and it allows the insertion of pdf links in the summary to navigate within the document. Cheers, Pierre-Jean.
