Graham has set up the TeX file specification.tex so that on his Acorn
Archimedes (hence the filesnames starting with "$.") it will
automatically generate the table of contents. For the release version
he has included the table of contents, but forgotten to remove the
various file-handling commands.
To make it run perfectly, comment out (that is, place a single "" at
the start of the line) lines 174, 181 and 2705 of specification.tex.
Here are some diffs for you (run "patch" to merge them):
