Damn, I thought I have fixed that.  This probably depends on AsciiDoc
version ("make doc" on 'master' generates a few _warnings_ for me related
to similar situation), but the problem is with

  [Default: <value>]

that was copied from gitweb/README.  But [<sth>] is an attribute list
(style name in simplest form), used more often in newer AsciiDoc.

So either we have to escape '[' and ']', i.e. use {startsb} and {endsb},
which would reduce human-friendliness, or move to different way of marking
default values, e.g. _italic_.

What do you think?
