Excellent, thanks!

Another suggestion for the documentation build I have would be to run
'pdflatex --jobname=quilt -t letter $<' twice. Latex seems to require
two passes in order to generate section references.

If I run from the doc/ directory 'git clean -dfx' and 'make clean' and then
'make quilt.pdf', then section references such as "The location of patch
files (see Section 3)." don't get generated properly.

But it seems to have worked for you today, so I don't know. I'm not
really familiar with Latex.
