Actually it would, if it weren't for our use of '-a no-inline-literal'.
Which we are using because the "backticks do not interpret {stuff}"
feature was introduced in a backwards-incompatible way in asciidoc
8.4.1, see 71c020c (Disable asciidoc 8.4.1+ semantics for `{plus}` and
friends, 2009-07-25).

Some googling tells me the distros are currently at

  openSuSE         8.4.5   (local)
  Debian (stable)  8.5.2   packages.debian.org
  Fedora           8.4.5   admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/
                           (but I can't discern whether it's actually in there...)
  Arch             8.6.6   www.archlinux.org/packages/
  Ubuntu 11.10     8.6.4   packages.ubuntu.com

so perhaps the time has come to remove that switch?
