dblatex can't build docs; fix included.

Currently, on my Fedora 17 system, the following occurs when you try to build the docs:

pdflatex failed

users_guide.tex:1030: leading text: }

Unexpected error occured

This is easily fixed like so:

DBLATEX_OPTS="-P 'filename.as.url=0'" make

makes it work.

see http://dblatex.sourceforge.net/doc/manual/sec-param-value.html and http://dblatex.sourceforge.net/doc/manual/filename.as.url.html for an explanation; if you leave it as url style, dblatex leaves \ , as in "C:\Documents And Settings", in there literally, and I didn't want to hack dblatex, and this fixes the problem.

No idea where to put this in the makefiles or whatever to solve it for real, sorry.

It may be the case, probably *is* the case in fact, that a newer dblatex fixes this, but I doubt very much that y'all rely on this feature anyways, and not building on the latest Fedora is kind of unfortunate.
