I installed the earlier version of the stylesheet in
its own catalog and ran my document through xsltproc
and pdfxmltex and it worked. Thank you!!! :-)
However, while this may be a good short term solution,
it still begs the question as to what to do for the
long term. While I appreciate Bob Stayton's suggestion
of using a custom layer, I do not think that is the
long term answer either. Lists should work correctly
by default.
Any suggestions anyone?
