I'm sorry to say, but things are not good as they seemed before:
To save space I let GLOBAL gzip all pages, saving 500 MB. Unfortunately 
I can't set the content handler, so what you'll see is gzipped html. 
Doesn't look really nice :-(. Problems should be solved this week, you 
know, Really Soon.

When 2 files with the same symbols are present, you get an extra page 
with links to both of them for every symbol you want to go to. That is 
quite annoying. I don't want to do this because it reduces usablility 
drastically.
Another way would be to setup a parallel GLOBAL, but that would take 
with everything duplicated another 500 MB.
Third, I could setup a GLOBAL with gnumach1 alone, losing the "cross" 
part for gnumach1.

I prefer to put only 1 gnumach in.

I thought so ...
