Hi,

Thanks again for the help getting away from texi2www.

We have spotted one oddity in our generated html. We use
this pattern in multiple places where we put @findex before
an @item.

@itemize @bullet
@findex CONFIGURE_MALLOC_STATISTICS
@item @code{CONFIGURE_MALLOC_STATISTICS} is defined when the application
wishes to enable the gathering of more detailed statistics on the
C Malloc Family of routines.

In the generated HTML, there is an extra empty bullet as shown
here:

http://rtems.org/onlinedocs/doc-current/share/rtems/html/c_user/c_user_420.html#Configuring-a-System-Library-Support-Definitions

This is not found in the generated pdf.

We are using texi2html-1.82-6.fc15.noarch which appears
to use the same source for texi2html that other distros are
using. RTEMS has a PR on this but thanks to an OS upgrade,
Bugzilla isn't alive at the moment.

I know we are in the no man's land between "obsolete"
and "new tool not ready" but wanted to pass this along. It
can at least be a test case.
