I think they're all repo-copies in progress, and should indeed not
appear in the index yet.

What I would like is for the incrementally built index to be identical
to the 'make index' version, or at least up to cosmetic differences
that I can post-process away automatically.  Then I can set up a
comparison that validates the incremental index over a period of time
to look for remaining corner cases where it gets out of sync.
