Flush together looks ok to me, but I could be persuaded otherwise.

Well, if you replaced all your DSSSLs with the ones from CVS, it could
certainly be the case that the build process for releases patches some
things.

Uhm, I'll try to build a DSSSL test release this week and we'll see if
the problem goes away.

I'm guessing I'm being foolish modifying this file to get the style sheets 
working (theres probably a more proper/cleaner/preferred way than this).

This is using SGML and DSSSL 1.76

And I'm starting my own stylesheet like:

I'm creating my pdf via:
