For anyone else that doesn't care whether callout numbers actually link to
each other, and for anyone else who didn't realise that this is totally
possible -- if you encode your asciidoc files as utf-8, you can always just
include the literal characters, eg ➊ , directly in your source, and in your
listings...

That's a little tedious, since it's hard to type those in. I did also have
a bit of a play with the replacements section of the conf files, eg:

[replacements]
%1%=&#x278a

which will replace any %1% from your main text with a ➊.  But not a %1%
inside a code listing, unless you get very clever with your [subs=]
prefixes.

cheers all,
HP


PS - just for anyone else like me that really struggled to get callouts
working -- they don't, out of the box.  you have to switch them on, either
at the command-line, or (simpler) in an asciidoc.conf file next to your
main docs.  You also have to find the path to where you installed asciidoc,
and find the images/icons folder in there, so you can add the following
lines to your asciidoc.conf:

[attributes]
icons
iconsdir=/path/to/asciidoc/images/icons
