DOCBOOK-APPS: variable list layout

[Ian Moor <iwm@doc.ic.ac.uk>]

 Formatting a variable list with a funcsynoposis in each term,

   <VariableList>
    <VarListEntry>
     <Term>
      <funcsynopsis>
       <FuncPrototype>
       <funcdef>dict <function>createdict</function></funcdef>
       <paramdef>void</paramdef>
	</FuncPrototype>
      </funcsynopsis>
     </Term>
     <ListItem>
      <SimPara>
       returns an empty dictionary.
      </SimPara>
     </listitem>
    </varlistentry>
     ...

When printed, for each element in the list  the vertical space between 
the term and the description is twice  that of the space between the term 
and the description in the entry above.. 
Replacing the funcsynopsis with unformatted  text in the terms results in 
the expected layout.
 
Using version 1.55 of the modular stylesheets (print) with docbook 4.1 and
%may-format-variablelist-as-table%  #t, (the terms are too long to produce 
a table).
