Pushed with a change:

-->
    (see <xref linkend="std-notes">chapter "Implementation Notes"</xref>)
The reason is how xref is handled when creating html docs.  The result
of an xref is always 'the section called "..."'.  With the above change,
the text works (albeit differently) in html and info file.

Cheers, thanks, I'll bear that in mind in future, and read the generated
output more carefully.

I'm not seeing .info generated with Note:... links, is that okay?

db2x_docbook2texi from docbook2X is used for that.

Cygwin provides db2x_texixml in docbook2X 0.8.8

Also ...api.pdf is no longer being regenerated, so what have I lost or am 
missing?

xmlto is doing this stuff, maybe the pdf option requires another package?

I thought that was dblatex via TeX and/or poppler

I have the following doc tools (and others):

$ apt l asciidoc dblatex poppler\$ xmlto
asciidoc 8.6.9-1 x86_64 [installed, manual]
dblatex 0.3.10-1 x86_64 [installed, automatic]
poppler 21.01.0-1 x86_64 [installed, manual]
xmlto 0.0.28-1 x86_64 [installed, automatic]

Also as documented plus other dependencies:

$ apt l build-docbook-catalog docbook-sgml45 docbook-utils docbook-xml45 \
        docbook-xsl docbook2X
build-docbook-catalog 1.5-2 x86_64 [installed, automatic]
docbook-sgml45 4.5-1 x86_64 [installed, automatic]
docbook-utils 0.6.14-2 x86_64 [installed, manual]
docbook-xml45 4.5-1 x86_64 [installed, manual]
docbook-xsl 1.77.1-1 x86_64 [installed, automatic]
docbook2X 0.8.8-1 x86_64 [installed, manual]

What else is needed?

Good question.  I'm running that on Fedora with the following docbook
packages installed:

   docbook-dtds
   docbook-style-xsl
   docbook-style-dsssl
   docbook-utils
   docbook2X

Also got docbook-dsssl and all but docbook-xsl-ns - will install that

xmlto adds a dependency to flex.  docbook2X depends on texinfo, texinfo
comes with a number of packages on the far side of infinity.

Got bison, byacc, and flex; texinfo requires only a few std libs and perl modules, it's not La/TeX.

Jon?  Any idea?

Last cygwin-api.pdf generated was 2020 Nov 10, last cygwin-ug-net.pdf generated was 2020 Dec 17.

Missed error ignored by build:

...
xmlto --skip-validation --with-dblatex pdf -o cygwin-api/ -m ../../../../winsup/doc/fo.xsl ../../../../winsup/doc/cygwin-api.xml
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/dblatex", line 10, in <module>
    from dbtexmf.dblatex import dblatex
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dbtexmf'
make[3]: [Makefile:128: cygwin-api/cygwin-api.pdf] Error 1 (ignored)
...

Looks like it was installed by dblatex in python2.7/site-packages which I wiped when I dropped python2 et. al. and upgraded to python3. Oops - my bad!

$ cygcheck -c dblatex
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
dblatex              0.3.10-1       Incomplete

Thanks for help and sorry for wasting time.
I need to upgrade anyway as there is a backlog of 187 packages waiting for me to download 84MB including dblatex and python3!
