It is a problem if you're producing docbook.
It is in fact valid Texinfo and is not the same with an @itemx, as in Texinfo an empty description is valid. At some point I tried to fool docbook by adding an empty listitem but it didn't work. I have just checked that an empty listitem with an empty para seems to satisfy xmllint. Would that be ok for you? -- Pat
