Xref page numbering not correct

[Writer]

Did you create FM files or XML files? If you created XML files, the xrefs will all pretty much say page 1.

They should be referencing the generated FM files (so the links work in the PDF and the page numbers are correct). At one point FM-DITA had a problem with this (leaving the @hrefs pointing at the DITA topics), but I thought this had been fixed. Have you applied the two FM10 updates?
