Subject: revison history in DocBook 's

DocBook sgml/xml documents filtered to HTML with the current
DSSSL styles hide the <revhistory>, if the top-level container
element happens to be <book> (for <article>, the history is
displayed).

Comparisons:

    http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/SCSI-2.4-HOWTO/

        (DocBook SGML, <book>, with a <revhistory> in the SGML)

    http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Partition/
    http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Nvidia-OpenGL-Configuration/

        (DocBook SGML, <article>, with a <revhistory> in the SGML)

---

Anyone have any thoughts or preferences on if this table should
be shown for <book>'s?  I can modify ldp.dsl if it's needed.

Note that if it isn't included, no where in the document will the
revision number and date be shown unless the author explicitly
repeats it in another area of the book (e.g. a "record of revision"
section).
