There should be no special files in en/user-reference. We need to fix
that issue rather than change the Makefile I think.

Thanks. This was on my list for today to correct. (The lone * is
breaking ReST formatting.)

I don't want anything called the User "Manual". I want:

* a User Guide that presents HOW to use Bazaar (task-based)
* a User Reference that covers WHAT the detailed features are.

For a comparison, see the Python documentation (http://www.python.org/doc/):

* the Python Tutorial presents HOW
* the Language and Library References present the WHAT.
