Is there an actual, complete example that shows the magical mix of files and

fine.
It appears that \maketitle needs to be redefined, but my attempts at that
fail with TeX errors. Or I could define my own and set 'maketitle' in
latex_elements in conf.py. Maybe. So far, none of the examples I have found
show an actual, complete, working example.
Given that this is the only way to create a custom cover page with the
default Sphinx configuration, such an example should be part of the Sphinx
docs.
I am using Sphinx 1.4.8.
At this point, I have discovered that redefining \maketitle results in
the parameters/variables not be expanded. From conf.py:
'preamble': r'''
\renewcommand{\maketitle}{
\begin{titlepage}
\noindent \Huge \@date \par
\end{titlepage}
}'''
produces a title page with the word "date" rather than the date. The
values are defined in the .tex file, but not expanded. Defining a new
title routine and setting it as 'maketitle' has the same behavior.
