AHA! I was trying to use chapters in the frontmatter and that (silently) 
killed the TOC. So I used your macros, changed all frontmatter chapters to 
titles, and the TOC appeared like magic. Next I will try to define title as 
you have defined chapter. If that works, fine. Otherwise I will just move the 
frontmatter boundary back to earlier in the file. 

Thanks for your help! And Bill also, of course.
