[tei-council] Guidelines TOC page again

[Martin Holmes]

You're right about the potential confusion there, but the header "Table 
of contents" isn't a link, and is followed by numerically-identified 
section headings.

I'm inclined to worry about that minor detail after I've managed to 
figure out how the XSLT interacts with the Makefile -- there seems to be 
some Perl in there...

Cheers,
Martin
