Sure, will do that later..  btw I can't regenerate the actual printable
portions of the guide as I've not got the bandwidth to download
tex-jadetex (~90Mb!), so will commit the above and ask www@ to rebuild the
guide when its ready.

slightly related, I installed "meta-pkgs/netbsd-doc" and found that I
still could not make anything, as "docbook-xsl" package was not installed
(I guess its built as a buildlink not an actual depends, I built
netbsd-docs package in a pkg_comp chroot and installed the binary
package). netbsd-doc should probably have a direct dependency there..

Hm, yeah .. I tried to mention 4.0 in places where the referred context
may change (or has already changed) in later versions, to leave it easier
to add messages later and to imply that upgrading might give you more. I
will remove a couple of them.

No, thats good - I have changed that section, to say that 'if support is
compiled in, messages will appear, otherwise you can add the following to
the kernel configuration file to enable it'.
