According to the xml2pdf.xsl file in the xml.docs are some little bugs, for
example
     - check why in section "FO Formatting" p. 17 the bullets are
overwritten

I had a look at the stylesheet and changed the <xsl:template match ="li">.
If you put a list block around the existing fo list instructions, the
bullets aren't overwritten anymore.

[snip]
<!-- li (list item) -->
<xsl:template match ="li">
	<fo:list-block>
		...existing instructions can stay
	</fo:list-block>
</xsl:template>
[/snip]

Marc,
thanks for pointing me to the error in the pdf file (overwritten bullets), but I don't think 
that your proposal is the way to go: According to the xsl spec "The fo:list-block has the 
role of containing the complete list and to specify values used for the list geometry in the
inline-progression-direction (see details below)", so we should wrap every item into this 
one. 
Actually the problem is that at this point we don't have a unordered list (<ul>), but an 
ordered list (ol), which isn't handled by the stylesheet at all. Another point to fix.
