Summary: What's new in Python2.3b1 HTML generation.

Initial Comment:
Whenever a section name includes a style change, the
llinks generated for it are truncated.

To reproduce:
  Go to section "5. PEP 278: Universal New Line Support"

Notice the next link: "6. PEP 279: The".  The link
should read
"6. PEP 279: The enumerate() Built-In Function."  Similar
problems happen with links for sections 7 and 8.

This problem does not happen in the table of contents
however.

This is a couple of things interacting, I think:
1. LaTeX2HTML abbreviates those links to include only a few
words of the section title, not the whole thing.
2. Sometimes markup probably gets counted as words (I'm less
sure about this one).
I'm not inclined to worry about this, as I'm unlikely to
manage to fix it without more work than it's worth.

I've fixed the section headers in the "What's New" documents to not 
use markup.  Fred, you can either fix the problem or just forget it 
and close the bug.

It looks like it is always grabbing the first word even when 
there is no style change.  Looking back at Py2.2.2, it also 
occurred there.  I'm this it is a TeX macro issue for Fred.
