If I understood you correctly, you want to group some index entries into 
*separate* indices, or in other words, a "specialized index". Right?

Use the "type" attribute (»Specifies the target index for this term«). Try 
this:

 <indexterm type="variable">
   <primary>track-eol</primary>
 </indexterm>

Don't forget to insert the following line (generally at the end of your 
document):

  <index type="variable"/>

All index entries marked with "type" and its value "variable" is shown 
under this index. For more information, see [1].

Hope this helps. :)


Bye,
Tom
