I revised the script to do it that way, as attached.  The results
don't change in any of our stable branches.  In v18, it makes
this change:

diff --git a/doc/src/sgml/release-18.sgml b/doc/src/sgml/release-18.sgml

because of the blank line before the </para>, which is not our usual
style and should be removed IMO.  (Alternatively, we could change
the $prev_leading_space updating logic to ignore blank lines.)
