Julian,


Sorry for an awfully late response, but just spotted this and thought I

This is not correct.

The automatic ToC function (and now since version 1.40 also the automated
reference function) operates using commands hidden behind Nroff comments.
A standard NROFF compiler will ignore the comments and process the ToC as
if it was manually entered. The ToC will match the document even if
compiled by a standard NROFF compiler.
