That would be the best thing to do.

I think that that would resolve the problem in the meantime that po4a devs
patch the program.

That would be the simpler thing to do, but we could have to introduce the
convention of, for example, call the docs with include directive in it 
docname-master.adoc to obtain a "fusion" of
docname_master.adoc+docname_chapter_01.adoc+docname_chapter_02.adoc...
into ->docname.adoc

nevermind... I've already resolved with some makefile+scripting+sed magic
:-) pushing it in a few minutes...

We just have to follow the convention of calling the chapters

DOCNAME_chapter_NN.adoc

etc. as we already do.

I know a joke about UDP, but you might not get it.
