The patch looks good. But during testing, it seems that the index is
always off by one page, i.e., the index for some section brings me to
page 117 but the section heading is actually on page 118.
I have that both with the Peter Atkins et al. book you suggested as well
as with own papers which didn't work at all previously due to #nameddest
references.
Bye,
