I went ahead and filed a bug report #485946 for this.
The first child of <answer> is being handled in a
manner that I think assumes it is a para, and it doesn't
work when it is something like an example.  I attached
a patch file to the bug report and assigned it to
Norm, because only he knows the logic he used in
handling the first child that way.  I hope he
remembers what it was.  8^)
