A shot in the dark without sufficient information I could try to make is
that you are trying to use an ancient AsciiDoc, perhaps pre-7.1.2?

I am guessing that the following entry from their ChangeLog:

    Version 7.1.2 (2006-03-07)
    --------------------------
    .Additions and changes
     ...
    - An 'inline passthrough' mechanism has been implemented.

refers to this "triple-plus" passthrough, documented in:

    http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/userguide.html#X77

As the use of feature is isolated to only the documentation for filter-branch,
I am personally Ok with replacing that passthru with a simpler formatting
element that is supported by an ancient version of AsciiDoc (but I didn't
look at your patch in the attachment).
