We've hit this one too. Unfortunately the following does not work:

--------------------------
preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of
promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.</para>

</listitem> </orderedlist>

<bridgehead>NO WARRANTY</bridgehead>

<orderedlist continuation="continues" numeration="arabic">

<listitem>

<para>BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
--------------------------

The list numbers continue with 4 and 5. Here's the .txt output:

--------------------------
   12. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
       programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the
       author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by
       the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software
       Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision
       will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of
       all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
       and reuse of software generally.
       
NO WARRANTY

    4. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
       WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
       LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS

Also, how do we get a list to start at '0' instead of '1'?
