Until such time as I can figure out how to avoid it, it's better not
to refer to FAQ entries this way.  These change over time as the FAQ
gets updated.  It's perhaps a bit more work, but instead say something
like:

	FAQ entry "How do I contribute a package?"

It has the added benefit of forcing people to read the TOC, which
might prove educational itself.

Thanks,
David
