Problems with xref and linkcheck

Hi, 

I am using beta-9-SNAPSHOT 
and have just used the linkcheck to good effect - thanks.

The results can be seen at http://maven.melati.org/linkcheck.html, 
(any comments welcome)
the remaining problems seem to be xref generated:

1. If code contains <http://www.apache.org/> then 
xref creates a link to http://www.apache.org/> 

2. All the XREF overview and package summary pages have broken escapes:
http://maven.melati.org/xref/org/apache/java/lang/\.\./\.\./\.\./\.\./overview-summary.html

3. xref assumes that the first class in a file will be the class for which 
the file is named, which isn't necessarily true.

4. Any occurance of package is assumed to be the keyword:
final String packageName;
becomes
<b>final</<a href="../../../../b> String packageName/package-summary.html">b> 
String packageName</a>;

Vector packageTables = dsd.tablesInPackage;
becomes:
<a href="../../../../Vector packageTables = 
dsd/tablesInPackage/package-summary.html">Vector packageTables = 
dsd.tablesInPackage</a>;

5. linkcheck counts 301 and 302 as dead links

6. linkcheck claims not to be able to /javadoc/ which I can find by hand. 

hope this helps, 
Tim pizey
