Thanks. That did the trick -

And I have no idea what "vectors are preloaded" means :) But it
sounds cool -- like something Mr. Scott might say to Captain Kirk

(I'm not all tech-savvy, so please bear with me.)

Yes, I think so. Full Unicode name of &#x200B; is "ZERO WIDTH
SPACE" while &#xFEFF; is "ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE", which I
guess implies that &#x200b; isn't no-break.

That said, I think the DocBook stylesheets should be generating a
&#xFEFF; here instead. And probably should be generating it
regardless of what FO->PDF engine it's destined for. I will
suggest it to the other developers in the project. If they agree,
I'll probably be changing it to &#xFEFF; instead.

Because I can't think of any cases where anybody would want a
break in the middle of "--"

Cool. Looking forward to it.
