Nope.

The issue is that the document uses xref/target to point to sections
indentified by their "pn" attribute, and that one's value is different
under the new version of xml2rfc (and gets replaced).

We wouldn't have this issue if the ToC wasn't inlined in the first
place. So a bad implementation decision now causes breakage in
"canonical XML".

This could be worked around by xml2rfc rewriting the inlined ToC as
well... (but that would be a workaround on top of a bad implementation
choice which leaked into the user-visible grammar).

Best regards, Julian
