Hmm, TBH, I don't really remember what prompted me to drop
the documentation back in 2016... It may have been a momentary
lapse of reason - I may have missed the "no invariant sections" part and
somehow decided that this was the same case as with the documentation of
the GNU "mdk" package which definitely does have an invariant sections...
or I may have been a bit confused by the front- and back-cover text part.

Yeah, looking back now, that may have indeed been the wrong thing to do.
Sorry! :)

G'luck,
Peter
