#110 pcref sometimes fails to locate all references
pcref decode_clock_value_$date_time
peruse_crossref: Not found: decode_clock_value_$date_time
crossref generates the data that is used by pcref; it formats the data to be both human-readable and pcref readable. The human-readable code is doing a line break for lone entry point names, and pcref does not know how to parse that line break.
Rather then fixing the pcref parser, adjusting the margins in the human-reading code in crossref is much easier.

This prevents the line break for long entry point names, and code inspection of crossreference and pcref leads me to beleive that this change is benign.
I just generated a new crossref on GHM. Below you can see the output of pcref when accessing, first, the original total.crossref from MR12.6e, and second, the new total.crossref created with the a crossref that includes the above fix (MCR10022):
pcref decode_clock_value_$date_time
peruse_crossref: Not found: decode_clock_value_$date_time
r 16:43 0.196 62
pcref [hd]>total.crossref decode_clock_value_$date_time

The bug manifested it self as:
The 'SEE' being on it's own line is what breaks pcref.
Grepping the new total.crossref for '^[ ]*SEE"' (or something like that)
would help verify that all cases were caught by the fix.
