Hmm, I get the following with your example when I view it
with IE5 or Netscape 4.7:
o
int xf86GetVerbosity():
which returns the value of xf86Verbose
where "o" is the bullet. That is, the bullet is not out
of order as in your example. What browser are you using?
Is CSS involved?
The bullet is above the term, but that's expected because
the variablelist in the itemizedlist/listitem starts a
<div>, which will start on a new line.
I don't think you can get the term to line up with
the bullet without using CSS to adjust the
div margins.
I do see one oddity: the right paren in the
expression is slightly lower than the left
paren.
