Right, I ran into a couple of show-stopper coq bugs in the last few
days, so you really do need the latest patches from the branch.

Incidentally, what I'm currently working on is a proof that catches
satisfy the patchlike axioms.

Sorry about that; I've been focussing on the proof lately, so not
building the PDF.

(and as a result, the PDF is probably a bit out of sync with the proofs.
And generally lacking in text for that matter).

The trick is to give up, and use # instead  :-)

    % We can't use % as a comment character in files that go through coqdoc,
    % as it uses that as the latex escape character. Sigh. So we use #
    % instead.
    \catcode`\#14

I've pushed a patch to fix this up, and also correct a few include
paths.


Thanks
Ian
