Okay, the PDF/A1-b scanner in Acrobat X Pro, says this in the "trigger
values" section:

XMP property is predefined but is not used in accordance with the
definition
  Trigger values
    Property existints in PDF/A standard: is true
      dc:description[1]
      dc:title[1]
    Predefined XMP property in PDF/A standard matches definition: is not
true
      dc:description{1]
      dc:title[1]

What exactly that means is a tad confusing.  Fortunately, I have a copy
of the PDF/A spec handy... And that wasn't much help.  Here's the
relevant raw XMP:

<rdf:Description rdf:about=""
xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/";>
  <dc:format>application/pdf</dc:format>
 
<dc:description><rdf:Alt><rdf:li>QPJOBLOG</rdf:li></rdf:Alt></dc:descrip
tion>
  <dc:subject><rdf:Bag><rdf:li>QPJOBLOG</rdf:li></rdf:Bag></dc:subject>
  <dc:title><rdf:Alt><rdf:li>Created with iText on
iSeries</rdf:li></rdf:Alt></dc:title>
 
<dc:creator><rdf:Seq><rdf:li>BeppeCostagliola</rdf:li></rdf:Seq></dc:cre
ator>
</rdf:Description>

Note that the subject and creator are fine... Both have containers.
"title" and "decription" are not, both contain <rdf:Alt>.  I suspect
that if I were to replace "alt" with "bag" in a binary editor, it'd
pass.  Lets find out, shall we?

Nope.  That didn't help.  And I'm fresh out of ideas.  

NOTE:  I used a BINARY editor, not a text editor.  PDF is a binary
format, byte offsets count.  Text editors have a nasty habit of making
EOL characters consistent across the entire file.  When that file
contains compressed binary data, they tend to mistake some portion of
that data as EOLs and "fix" them, resulting in broken PDFs.  There are
lots of free binary editors floating around... I used "Frhed", "free hex
editor", from sourceforge just now.  It's fine, but I'm sure there are
better ones out there.

Leonard might have an idea or two, but I'm stumped.
