Hi,

Fixed with these three commits:

  868da34d54 doc: Fix cookbook URLs in htmlxref.cnf.
  6e747c3d50 doc: cookbook: Fix cross-reference to SICP.
  63a11f92d1 doc: cookbook: Fix cross-reference to the manual.

It should propagate to the on-line copy within an hour.

Note that SICP doesn’t have a Texinfo-compatible set of HTML pages
on-line, so that links will unfortunately remain broken.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
