Well, I think the long-term way to solve this is to change DocBook so that it allows procedure within example. If you agree, can you please file a request at the following address? https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=21935&atid=384107 I personally think the DocBook is overly prescriptive with regard to where it allows procedure to be used. This runs counter to one of the fundamental design principles that DocBook has had from its beginning: To be descriptive rather than prescriptive. I can't see any good reason why a procedure should not be allowed within an example. In the mean time, I think your only solution might be to use an orderedlist for the steps within your example. It's not ideal as far as the source markup goes, but it should end up being rendered the same, at least.
