bulleted lists in htmldoc-generated pdf corrupted


I'm using the following command to generate pdf from docbook:

openjade -t sgml -d $DSL/html/htmldoc.dsl some.sgml | htmldoc -f some.pdf -

htmldoc.dsl is my stylesheet that does nochunks so one large html file is 
sent to stdout.  If I redirect the output to a html file and view it in a web 
browswer, it looks fine.

When it is piped to htmldoc to generate the pdf, it works but the bulleted 
items are corrupted:  either the lines are double spaced or the last entry in 
the list is on top of the bullet and not indented with the others like:

double spaced:

	* item1 blah blah blah blah blah
	
	* item2 blah blah blah blah blah

	* item3 blah blah blah blah blah

Last entry problem:

	* item1 blah blah blah blah blah	
	* item2 blah blah blah blah blah
item3 bl*h blah blah blah blah


Of course what I want is:	 

	* item1 blah blah blah blah blah	
	* item2 blah blah blah blah blah
	* item3 blah blah blah blah blah


Another problem is that %shade-verbatim% #t is not shading everything it 
should in the pdf file.  Again, the html file is fine when I view it.

I'm using DocBook V4.1, Modular DocBook Stylesheets 1.60, openjade 1.3, and 
htmldoc 1.8.9 on Linux.  Seems like a htmldoc problem.  Is there a fix for 
this?
