I fixed that yesterday. You may try it out in CVS.
I hope the way multiple crossrefs are handled is ok.

At the moment it's the same formatting in all modules. We might want to change 
that.

I fixed that yesterday, too. I used an "n" to mark a note, I'm not sure how 
the marker should look like.

Hm, that needs a fix to the perl script which makes the templates into C++ 
code. 
Shouldn't be that difficult.

Thank you for your comments. We appreciate your thoughts on these topics,
