I guess $WE should probably change scripts/sphinx-pre-install to give a warning; I wonder if some defensive changes to Documentation/sphinx/kerneldoc-preamble.sty would also make sense? My TeXpert days (such as they were) are decades behind me at this point, so I'll be slow to do the latter part if it comes to that. Thanks for your help on this! jon
