The latest stylesheets support a processing instruction inside example or 
informalexample:

<informalexample>
<?dbfo pgwide="1"?>
<programlisting> ...

  Subject: [docbook-apps] page-wide program examples


  I'd like to have some program examples extend the full width of the page in 
PDF output. I thought I could put the <programlisting> elements within an 
<example> or <informalexample> element, and set the pgwide attribute to 1 
(which you can do with tables and figures). However, <example> and 
<informalexample> don't support the pgwide attribute.



  As a temporary workaround, I'm inclined to put the <programlisting> inside a 
<table> or <figure> and set the pgwide attribute.



  Has anyone else found another simpler way to create page-wide program 
examples?



  Regards,
