The problem is that DocBook stylesheets wrap content of listitem in <p>
(because originaly it was <para> in DocBook). The easiest way how to fix
this is to postprocess generated XHTML files and remove <p>s inside
<li>. I'm using attached XSLT transformation (inspired by code provided
by Adam Witwer originaly).
