Actually I am still confused :-(

We have the typeof.qbk file in CVS, and we updated several other files
so that the typeof documentation is now generated by Metacomm's bulds.

The question is -- is this all that needs to be done for the typeof
documentation
to appear in 1.34 in both HTML and PDF format?  If no, what else needs
to be done?
