...which reminds me...

under the old conversion scheme, there were a bunch of `normal'
characters, like [, ], $, \ and a few others, that you had to use
entity references for in the SGML source.

This has been fixed!  Now, the only ones you should ever have to
use are &amp; for & and &lt; for <. 

The one outstanding exception is if you have a construction such
as this ${foo} in an attribute in which case you should use
&dollar;{foo}.  This only occurs once in the handbook so it
shouldn't be too big of a deal and hopefully I'll get some time
to fix the bug soon.
