This updated version validates, uses entities where appropriate
(creating some new ones), and temporarily restores the links that were
in the section previously. (Most of those links should eventually have
better homes, but I'll move them rather than removing them.)

Two bugs affect the presentation of the new text:
      * "All entities have unwanted space before and after them"
        <https://launchpad.net/bugs/78135>
      * "Clicking an <xref> to a <glossentry> doesn't scroll to that
        entry" <http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=393341>.

Cheers
