Hi Bob, thanks for your reply.

Not that I can see. there are only 3 explicit olinks in the offending file:
<olink targetdoc="impnotes" targetptr="mod-set-example"/>
<olink targetdoc="impnotes"/>
<olink targetdoc="man"/>
their titles contain no olinks (just ulinks).
however, I have some entities, which contain olinks, which _might_
refer to elements
with entities containing olinks in the title....
and indeed, there is one! (it would be nice if the error message were
more clear!)

================ impnotes:
<section id="mod-dynload"><title>Function &mod-dynload;</title> .....
================ impent
<!ENTITY mod-dynload '<olink targetdoc="impnotes"
targetptr="mod-dynload"><function>SYS::DYNLOAD-MODULES</function></olink>'>
================ clisp-link
&mod-dynload;
================

so, indeed, the offending file clisp-link uses olink to an element
with an olink in the title.
alas, even after editing impnotes to remove olink from title I get the
same error.
it might be actually hard to search for olink through all the titles.
is there an automatic way?
it would be nice if there were a warning for each "olink in title" event.

thanks a lot!
