The problem is in your test case.  A title page is only built
for a Reference if it has a title or a subtitle, and your
reference doesn't have a title.

For the purposes of making a title page, only the content of
the *info element is examined, so a <title> outside of the
<docinfo> doesn't count.

It's a little bit unfortunate that DocBook allows <title> in
both places.  But if it didn't, then you'd need a <docinfo>
wrapper around every title, which would be very tedious.

I'll try to make the stylesheets a little smarter...
