No need to manually edit. Use the macros or awk / sed to spit the toc into a file which can be inserted into the correct position by the .so nroff directive. This will result in a table of contents in the correct position. There is the possibility that if the number of toc pages has changed from one iteration to the next that the page numbers will be off by one, but that will go away the next time the process runs. For editing a document, particularly a largish one, the availability of .so is for me nroff's biggest advantage over xml2rfc.
