Stab in the dark: Are you sure they're not there? The tag names suggest
those pgfs are used just for the chap/apndx number, with the title in a
separate pgf. Is that the case? If so, the Chapter.numberTOC and
Appendix.numberTOC pgfs may be defined as run-in heads (that's how we've
been doing it). 

Take a look at the TOC flow on the TOC ref page. Check out the
Chapter.numberTOC and Appendix.numberTOC pgfs in Paragraph Designer --
are they run-in heads? What building block(s) do they contain? If the
source pgfs are used only for the autonmbering and don't contain text,
the TOC pgfs will be empty if they contain the <$paratext> building
block instead of <$paranum>. If they're also run-in pgfs, and you have
text symbols turned off, you'd never see them. 

HTH!
