minor warnings/errors when building manual



I'm curious if this is some problem with my sgml tools (I have
linuxdoc-tools-0.9.16-4 as installed with rh 7.3), whether it's nothing to
worry about at all, or if it's something that should be fixed.

When I run make update-doc i get this:

...
Processing file manual
/usr/bin/nsgmls:<OSFD>0:895:4:E: no start tag specified for implied empty 
element "P"

/usr/bin/nsgmls:<OSFD>0:919:9:E: end tag for "DESCRIP" which is not finished
...

Looking at those lines in manual.sgml I see that the tags don't have any
trailing slash, like they do elsewhere.  I patched manual.sgml (attached)
and the warnings/errors went away.  I don't know the doctools well enough to
know if this is the place to fix this or if the sgml file is generated from
something else.

 This is not a real menu, but is used as a fallback for all of the other
 menus except for the pager and editor modes.  If a key is not defined in
 another menu, Mutt will look for a binding to use in this menu.  This allows
 you to bind a key to a certain function in multiple menus instead of having
 multiple bind statements to accomplish the same task.

 The alias menu is the list of your personal aliases as defined in your
