I've been using the same setup since I first started doing FDP stuff; I
added the code listed in the Doc Guide to my .emacs file, and haven't
changed it. rpm -V psgml looks fine.

I think after having battled it for a little while that it's related to
doing this:
  <xref linkend="target"/>
instead of:
  <xref linkend="target"></xref>

Exiting Emacs and restarting it seems to "fix" the problem. It only
happens using <filename> after <xref/> tags. I'm confused but I'm not
sure how to Bugzilla the problem since it could be the Big OE (Operator
Error).
