[... jogging my memory ... ] I think the problem was specifically with
links of the form:
<xref linkend="..." endterm="...">
having the "endterm" attribute specified -- your example didn't have
an "endterm". For an example, see the next page (p. 1749 according to
our page numbering, under the "Meta-Commands" sub-heading), for the
link to "SQL Interpolation" at the end of this paragraph:
<para>
If an unquoted colon (<literal>:</literal>) followed by a
<application>psql</> variable name appears within an argument, it is
replaced by the variable's value, as described in <xref
linkend="APP-PSQL-interpolation" endterm="APP-PSQL-interpolation-title">.
</para>
which at least in my PDF reader just sends one back to Page 1.
