I was unclear, but I meant forgetting to set DOCB... But:

I hadn't noticed that yet (neither the effect nor the report). So, you
kept it unset intentionally and for a good reason. Please accept my apology!

So the easy solution is out again, quite a pitty. The problem occurs on
F10 as well as F11/rawhide, right?

On a related issue: Does anybody know which asciidoc versions need
asciidoc7compatible to be set? 8.2.5 and above certainly don't, so we
should not advise using it. asciidoc's hg repo doesn't go back much more
(the initial revision does not need it either), and I haven't dug for
their earlier history yet.
