There are already anchors, but they look like #index-procedure.

I’m not sure how to do that.  Isn’t there some JavaScript involved?

Sure, if you want.

The bottom line is that this is all very much a hack: we’re

Longer-term, it would be nicer to use Guile’s stexi modules all along
with tight control over the generated HTML.
