It's neither. It's just Yelp does not know what to do with informal tables in 
an itemizedlist listitem :-( I have commented it in r502 so you can continue 
to work. I will test this later with a variablelist inside the listitem.

Sorry about that I should have checked if it worked under Yelp.

Call to GNOME: Shaum, if you are listening :-) informaltable is valid in 
lititem and yelp should work with it.
